Strategies For Demand Forecasting In Supply Chain?

• There has been a significant shift in how we
  approach supply chain demand forecasting we
  transitioned from a focus on supplywhat and how
  much to deliver or replenishto a demand-driven
  supply chain visibility solutions, which put too
  much emphasis on the intermediate objective of
  precise demand forecasting in supply chain
  management. Worse, previous demand forecasting
  technologies could not handle high variable
  demand.
• Even under ideal conditions, which do not exist
  in 2020, forecasting demand is impossible. Due to
  quick customer demand variations, demand
  forecasting in supply chain management is a big
  challenge for real time supply chain visibility
  management professionals.

What Exactly Is Demand Forecasting?

• It's critical to consider the fundamentals while
  preparing your demand prediction. Because there
  are so many moving pieces, it requires various
  abilities to complete them well. Demand
  forecasting estimates product demand, supply, and
  price in supply chain management. It also
  includes competition intelligence, data
  collection from suppliers, and the search for
  trends to anticipate future performance. In
  today's volatile supply and demand environment,
  demand forecasting in supply chain management
  must account for unpredictability while remaining
  focused on delivering service to your clients.

The Process Of Demand Forecasting

• We've thrown a lot of information at you in a
  hurry, but sales forecasting is nothing more than
  using historical sales data to predict customer
  demand in the future. The method may be divided
  into qualitative and quantitative methods, which
  depend on different resources and data sets to
  extrapolate valuable sales data. The quantitative
  forecasting approach is applied when there is
  historical sales data on certain items and a
  pre-established demand. On the other hand, the
  qualitative technique is based on developing
  technologies, price and availability changes,
  product lifetime, product updates, and, most
  significantly, the forecasters' intuition and
  experience.

4 Strategies For Demand Forecasting In Supply
Chain

1. Plan for uncertainty with probabilistic
   forecasting - Because getting your prediction
   correct is an unachievable aim, you should
   concentrate on the uncertainty inherent in
   demand. That is why probabilistic forecasting is
   a game changer for supply chain visibility
   solutions, assisting organisations in improving
   their resilience during times of crisis, better
   serving their consumers, and ultimately providing
   the maximum returns to their shareholders.
2. Improving supply chain forecasting with ML -
   Machine learning is one of the top three
   technical investments supply chain executives
   expect to make to change their supply chains.

4 Strategies For Demand Forecasting In Supply
Chain

1. Begin to automate demand forecasting techniques -
   In the face of increasing supply chain
   complexity, the function of the supply chain
   planner has been enhanced. Automation of real
   time supply chain visibility planning frees
   planners to make strategically important choices
   while enabling new levels of business
   performance.
2. Master supply chain forecasting for intermittent
   demand - Consumers demand more diverse product
   selections, which implies more sporadic demand
   and slow-moving inventories. The key to
   predicting intermittent demand is to properly and
   consistently estimate demand in both the "head"
   (fast-moving goods that are simpler to
   anticipate) and the "tail" (slower-moving things
   that are more difficult to forecast).
