Forecasting and Demand Planning


Forecasting is the process of projecting the
values of one or more variables into the
future.
Types
of forecasts:
Long-range
forecasts in total sales dollars
(top management level)
Aggregate forecasts of sales volume
(middle management level)
Forecasts of individual units (operational
level)

CHAPTER 11

FORECASTING AND DEMAND PLANNING

Basic Concepts in Forecasting


The planning horizon is the length of
time on which a forecast is based.
This spans from short-range forecasts
with a planning horizon of under 3
months to long-range forecasts of 1 to
10time
years.
The
bucket is the unit of measure for
the time period used in a forecast.

Statistical Forecasting Models


Statistical forecasting is based on the
assumption that the future will be an
extrapolation of the past.
Judgmental forecasting relies upon
opinions and expertise of people in
developing forecasts.

FORECASTING AND DEMAND PLANNING

Judgmental Forecasting
Judgmental forecasting relies upon
opinions and expertise of people in
developing forecasts.
Grass Roots forecasting is simply asking
those who are close to the end consumer,
such as salespeople, about the customers
purchasing plans.
The Delphi method consists of forecasting
by expert opinion by gathering judgments
and opinions of key personnel based on
their experience and knowledge of the
situation.

CHAPTER 11

FORECASTING AND DEMAND PLANNING

Basic Concepts in Forecasting


A time series is a set of observations
measured at successive points in time or
over successive periods of time.
A time series pattern may have one or
more of the following five characteristics:

Trend
Seasonal patterns
Cyclical patterns
Random variation (or noise)
Irregular (one time) variation

CHAPTER 11

FORECASTING AND DEMAND PLANNING

Basic Concepts in Forecasting


A trend is the underlying pattern of growth or
decline in a time series.
Seasonal patterns are characterized by
repeatable periods of ups and downs over short
periods of time.
Cyclical patterns are regular patterns in a data
series that take place over longer periods of time.
Random variation (sometimes called noise) is
the unexplained deviation of a time series from a
predictable pattern, such as a trend, seasonal, or
cyclical pattern.
Irregular variation is a one-time variation that
is explainable.

Single Moving Average


A moving average (MA) forecast is an
average of the most recent k observations
in a time series.
[11.4]
Ft+1 = (most recent k observations)/k
= (At + At1 + At2 + ... + Atk+1)/k
MA methods work best for short planning
horizons when there is no major trend,
seasonal, or business cycle pattern.
As the value of k increases, the forecast
reacts slowly to recent changes in the time
series data.

Single Exponential Smoothing


Single Exponential Smoothing (SES) is
a forecasting technique that uses a
weighted average of past time-series
values to forecast the value of the time
series in the next period.

Ft+1 = At + (1 )Ft
= Ft + (At Ft)

Forecasting in Practice
Managers use a variety of judgmental and
quantitative forecasting techniques.
Statistical methods alone cannot account
for such factors as sales promotions,
competitive strategies, unusual economic
disturbances, new products, large one-time
orders, labor complications, etc.
Statistical forecasts are often adjusted to
account for qualitative factors.

he demand for rental cars in Florida and other

warm climates peaks during college spring break


season. Call centers and rental offices are flooded
with customers wanting to rent a vehicle. National
Car Rental took a unique approach by developing a
customer-identification forecasting model, by which
it identifies all customers who are young and rent
cars only once or twice a year. These demand
analysis models allow National to call this target
market segment in February, when call volumes are
lower, to sign them up again. The proactive
strategy is designed to both boost repeat rentals 21
