Demand Forecasting

Demand Forecasting

Demand forecasting is the process of predicting and estimating the future demand for a product or service over a specific period. It is a critical component of supply chain management and production planning, as it helps organizations align their resources and inventory levels with anticipated customer demand.

Use cases:

  • Inventory Management: Accurate demand forecasting enables businesses to optimize their inventory levels, reducing the risk of overstocking or stockouts. By anticipating demand, companies can ensure they have sufficient stock to meet customer needs without tying up excessive capital in excess inventory.
  • Production Planning: Demand forecasts provide valuable insights for production planning and capacity management. Manufacturers can use demand projections to schedule production runs, allocate resources, and ensure they have the necessary materials and workforce to meet anticipated demand.
  • Supply Chain Optimization: Demand forecasting plays a pivotal role in supply chain optimization. By accurately predicting demand, businesses can streamline their supply chain operations, including procurement, transportation, and distribution, resulting in improved efficiency and cost savings.
  • Resource Allocation: Accurate demand forecasting enables organizations to allocate resources more effectively, such as staffing levels, equipment, and facilities. This ensures that adequate resources are available to meet anticipated demand, while avoiding unnecessary expenses associated with over-allocation.
