Independent Demand: What a firm can do to manage it. Can take an active role to influence demand
– –
Can take a passive role and simply respond to demand–

What Is Forecasting?
Process of predicting a future event
Underlying basis of all business decisions– Production– Inventory– Personnel– Facilities
Sales will be $200 Million!

Types of Forecasts by Time Horizon
Short-range forecast– – Job scheduling, worker assignments
Medium-range forecast– – Sales & production planning, budgeting
Long-range forecast– – New product planning, facility location

Types of Forecastsby Item Forecast
Economic forecasts– Address business cycle– e.g., inflation rate, money supply etc.
Technological forecasts– Predict technological change– Predict new product sales
Demand forecasts– Predict existing product sales

Delphi Methodl. Choose the experts to participate. There should be
a variety of knowledgeable people in different areas.
2. Through a questionnaire (or E-mail), obtain forecasts (and any premises or qualifications for the forecasts) from all participants.
3. Summarize the results and redistribute them to the participants along with appropriate new questions.
4. Summarize again, refining forecasts and conditions, and again develop new questions.
5. Repeat Step 4 if necessary. Distribute the final results to all participants.

Time Series Analysis
Time series forecasting models try to predict the future based on past data.
You can pick models based on:
1. Time horizon to forecast
2. Data availability
3. Accuracy required
4. Size of forecasting budget
5. Availability of qualified personnel

Simple Moving Average Formula
F = A + A + A +...+A
ntt-1 t-2 t-3 t-n
The simple moving average model assumes an average is a good estimator of future behavior.
The formula for the simple moving average is:
Ft = Forecast for the coming period n = Number of periods to be averagedA t-1 = Actual occurrence in the past period for up to “n” periods

Weighted Moving Average Formula
n-tn-t3-t3-t2-t2-t1-t1-tt Aw+...+Aw+A w+A w=F
w = 1ii=1
n
While the moving average formula implies an equal weight being placed on each value that is being averaged, the weighted moving average permits an unequal weighting on prior time periods.
wt = weight given to time period “t” occurrence. (Weights must add to one.)
The formula for the weighted average is:

Question: Given the weekly demand and weights, what is the forecast for the 4th period or Week 4?
Note that these weights place more emphasis on the most recent data, that is time period “t-1”.

Ft = Ft-1 + (At-1 - Ft-1)
Ft = At-1 +(1- )Ft-1
Or, Equivalently
= smoothing constantWhere,
Ft = Forecast for period tAt = Actual value in period t
Note: A higher value of places more weight on more recent observations

The MAD Statistic to Determine Forecasting Error
MAD = A - F
n
t tt=1
n
MAD 1.25 deviation standard 1
deviation standard 0.8 MAD 1
The ideal MAD is zero. That would mean there is no forecasting error.
The larger the MAD, the less the desirable the resulting model.
Note that by itself, MAD only lets us know the mean error in a set of forecasts.

Tracking Signal Formula The TS is a measure that indicates whether the
forecast average is keeping pace with any genuine upward or downward changes in demand.
The TS can be used like a quality control chart indicating when the model is generating too much error in its forecasts.
Generally, good TS fall between -4 and +4 The TS formula is:

Web-Based Forecasting: CPFR Defined Collaborative Planning, Forecasting, and
Replenishment (CPFR) a Web-based tool used to coordinate demand forecasting, production and purchase planning, and inventory replenishment between supply chain trading partners.
Used to integrate the multi-tier or n-Tier supply chain, including manufacturers, distributors and retailers.
CPFR’s objective is to exchange selected internal information to provide for a reliable, longer term future views of demand in the supply chain.
CPFR uses a cyclic and iterative approach to derive consensus forecasts.

Web-Based Forecasting: Steps in CPFR
1. Creation of a front-end partnership agreement
2. Joint business planning
3. Development of demand forecasts
4. Sharing forecasts
5. Inventory replenishment
