Demand Forecasting is the Scientific & Analytical Prediction &
Estimation of Future Demand for Goods or Services for a Particular
Period for the Purpose of Short Term or Long Term Decision &
Planning.
 It is Necessary for Sound Planning
 It Lays the Foundation for Production, Operation & Sales
 Basis for Budgeting & Financial Projections
 Provides Guidelines for Forecasts of Related Industries

Macro-level Forecasting: It deals with the general economic
environment relating to the economy as measured by the Index of
Industrial Production(IIP), national income and general level of
employment, etc.
Industry level Forecasting: Industry level forecasting deals with
the demand for the industry’s products as a whole. For example
demand for cement in India, demand for clothes in India, etc.
Business-level Forecasting: It means forecasting the demand for
a particular firm’s product. For example, demand for Birla cement,
demand for Raymond clothes, etc.

Choosing a Forecasting Technique
Factors to Consider
While it may provide a basis for forecasting, demand can be unpredictable based on variable market
conditions or product seasonality.
Unexpected peaks in demand can result in stock outages and quiet periods may result in
costly excess stock, which can build up carrying costs resulting in diminishing profits.

Quantitative

Forecasting
Method
ForecastingMethods This forecasting approach is a Mathematical Model based on historical
data.
It involves using past data to predict future demands.
More Relevant & Accurate the data Accurate Forecast will be attained.
Examples :
Simple Moving Average (SMA); Exponential Smoothing (SES);
Autoregressive; Integration Moving Average (ARIMA); Neural Network
(NN); Croston Method
These types of forecasting methods are based on Human factors
: Judgments, Opinions, Hunches, Intuition, Emotions, or Personal
Experiences and are subjective in Nature. They do not rely on any
Rigorous Mathematical Computations. These factors are difficult, or
impossible, to quantify.
Examples:
Personal Opinions, Market Research / Surveys, Delphi Method
SN Panigrahi
21
Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence
Machine learning models are a broad set of methodologies that use more complex mathematical techniques to
select variables and optimize fit in instances where there may be complicated interactions between features.
These can be powerful choices, but you’ll want to make sure these obey the integrated, transparent, and
actionable properties
You can achieve the following benefits :
 Greatly improve reliability in product forecasts and demand plans
 Allow full collaboration between all departments involved in demand planning
 Maintain the right inventory levels by product, customer, and location
 Accurately forecast revenue and perform cost/benefit analysis
 Strengthen new/untested marketing campaigns
 Analyze profitability by channel, product, and geography
 Minimize time-to-benefit by utilizing pre-packaged business templates

Inventory is Stock of items kept to meet future demand
Inventory is a physical stock of goods kept for the
future purposes.

The Role of the Stores & Understanding
Stores Functions
•A professionally managed Stores has a process and a space within, to receive the
incoming materials (Receiving Bay), keep them for as long as they are not required for use
(Custody) and then to move them out of stores for use (Issue). That is Main
Responsibilities are :
 Properly account for every item received in the stores
 Preserve the material till its issue from stores and
 Issue the material when demanded

Uncertainty in Supply and
Demand
Protect against uncertainties in demand and lead
times
Provides a measure of safety to keep
operations running when demand levels and
lead times cannot be known for sure
Supply Disruptions
Seasonal or Cyclical Demand
Forecast Inaccuracy Lead Time, Capacity
Limitations
Economies of Scale
Encourage production, purchase, and
transportation economies
Allows for long production runs
Takes advantage of Price-Quantity discounts
Allows for transport economies from larger
shipment sizes
SN Panigrahi
32
Improve Customer Service
Provides immediacy in product
availability
Inventory must be sufficient to provide
high-quality Customer Service –
Availability of Goods when
Customers Wanted.
Act as a Hedge Against Price
Changes
Allows purchasing to take place under
most favorable price terms
Act as a hedge against
contingencies
Buffers against such events as strikes,
fires, and disruptions in supply
Bullwhip Effect
Demand information is distorted as it
moves away from the end- use customer
Higher Safety Stock inventories are stored
to compensate
Buffers against such events as strikes,
fires, and disruptions in supply
SN Panigrahi
Reasons for Inventories
Avoids Work Stoppages
- Inventory provides independence between stages and avoids work stoppages
Independence from Vendor’s Maneuverability
Inventory provides Independence from Vendor’s Maneuverability
Provide Flexibility in Production Plan
Take the advantage of Batches and Longer Production Run
Provide flexibility to allow changes in production plans in view of changes in
demands etc
SN Panigrahi
Reasons Against Inventories
They consume capital resources that might be put to better use
elsewhere in the firm
They too often mask quality problems that would more immediately be
solved without their presence
They divert management’s attention away from careful planning and
control of the supply and distribution channels by promoting an insular
attitude about channel management
SN Panigrahi
Involves materials purchased for use
in the manufacturing or distribution
supply chain that are "directly"
related to the production of finished
goods.
Ex : Raw Materials, Packing Materials,
Consumables
Involves any commodity or
service that a company buys that
does not result directly in
finished goods.

Vendor Managed Inventory
The supplier usually owns the inventory at the customer’s
location
The supplier manages the inventory by any means appropriate
and plans shipment sizes and delivery frequency
The buyer provides point of sale information to the supplier
The buyer pays for the merchandise at the time of sale
The buyer dictates the level of stock availability required

  • 10. 10 Macro-level Forecasting: It deals with the general economic environment relating to the economy as measured by the Index of Industrial Production(IIP), national income and general level of employment, etc. Industry level Forecasting: Industry level forecasting deals with the demand for the industry’s products as a whole. For example demand for cement in India, demand for clothes in India, etc. Business-level Forecasting: It means forecasting the demand for a particular firm’s product. For example, demand for Birla cement, demand for Raymond clothes, etc. SN Panigrahi

Unexpected peaks in demand can result in stock outages and quiet periods may result in costly excess stock, which can build up carrying costs resulting in diminishing profits. SN Panigrahi
  • 19. Product design and development critical Frequent product and process design changes Short production runs High production costs Limited models Attention to quality Introduction Growth Maturity Decline OMStrategy/Issues Forecasting critical Product and process reliability Competitive product improvements and options Increase capacity Shift toward product focus Enhance distribution Standardization Fewer product changes, more minor changes Optimum capacity Increasing stability of process Long production runs Product improvement and cost cutting Little product differentiation Cost minimization Overcapacity in the industry Prune line to eliminate items not returning good margin Reduce capacity SN Panigrahi
  • 20. SN Panigrahi 20 Quantitative Forecasting Method Qualitative Forecasting Method ForecastingMethods This forecasting approach is a Mathematical Model based on historical data. It involves using past data to predict future demands. More Relevant & Accurate the data Accurate Forecast will be attained. Examples : Simple Moving Average (SMA); Exponential Smoothing (SES); Autoregressive; Integration Moving Average (ARIMA); Neural Network (NN); Croston Method These types of forecasting methods are based on Human factors : Judgments, Opinions, Hunches, Intuition, Emotions, or Personal Experiences and are subjective in Nature. They do not rely on any Rigorous Mathematical Computations. These factors are difficult, or impossible, to quantify. Examples: Personal Opinions, Market Research / Surveys, Delphi Method SN Panigrahi
