Operational expertise and advanced system capability combine to deliver flexible support packages and realise important customer benefits. Services: Demand Management and Forecasting Categorisation & consolidation of customer demand data Raw customer demand data provided by the Client is categorised enabling order generation based on agreed rules. Each category is consolidated at item level for agreed time period (normally weekly). Create Customer Demand Forecasts The consolidated forecastable demand data is used to generate mathematical models of the demand history for each item. Extending the model into the future produces the demand forecast for each item. Process Optimisation Statistical Safety Stock calculation Sub processes measure the historical variability of demand vs. forecast. The statistical safety stock calculation utilises this measure to identify an appropriate level of safety stock for a given service level requirement. Optimise Inventory for given service levels Various techniques including optimal grouping and ‘plan to stock’ rules are used to minimise the total inventory required to support an overall service level need.
