Forecast demand. Improve planning.
Demand signals from historical sales, seasonality, open opportunities and forecasts are consolidated into a single planning model. Planners can adjust assumptions, weighting and time horizons as conditions change, allowing forecasts to be updated without recreating plans or disrupting downstream processes.
Those demand plans feed directly into purchasing and replenishment decisions, influencing order timing, quantities and inventory positioning. This helps keep stock levels aligned to expected demand, reduces exposure to excess inventory and supports more stable planning cycles as product ranges and volumes increase.
