ForecastPlanner™ for

RETAILERS

Since the forecasting demands of retailers significantly differ from those of suppliers, we developed two different solutions which are adjusted to meet the specific needs of both.

For retailers, we offer an automatic large-scale forecasting solution including events forecasting, promotional forecasting, life cycle based forecasting and target inventory optimization.

Creation Of Target Inventory

• Target inventory is based on the item forecastability and on intelligent detection of past behavior.

• Target inventory is calculated differently for every item/store based on its segment (steady, sporadic, short, seasonal, etc) and on its life status (launch, promoted, phasing out).

• Management of promotion target (how to start and leave a promotion).

• Forecastability and variability of demand and supply govern the safety stock portion of the target inventory.

•A careful past behavior pattern recognition verifies/updates the target inventory.
