With Forecast Pro, you can create accurate forecasts quickly using established statistical
methods. Forecast Pro models accommodate variety of pattern and demand challenges.
Forecast PRO Capabilities
Automatic AI-driven Forecasting
Forecast Pro’s automatic “best pick” algorithm allows you to generate
accurate forecasts, even for thousands of items, in a matter of seconds
and will account for seasonal patterns, trends, business cycles,
promotional activity and more. If you prefer to specify the forecasting
approach, Forecast Pro provides menu-based custom modeling options
and a comprehensive set of diagnostic tools. Visit the Forecasting
Methodologies page for a complete list of statistical methods
implemented in the software.
Customized Hierarchies & Multiple
Units of Measure
You can forecast at any level of granularity and easily view/report
aggregate data and forecasts. Forecast Pro also supports hierarchy pivoting
and the ability to work with forecasts in units, dollars, and other units of
measure simultaneously, allowing different parts of your team and/or
organization to view the forecasts how they want to see them.
Forecast Pro offers a comprehensive portfolio of tools for solving a wide range of forecasting challenges.
Forecast PRO Capabilities
Easy Forecast Adjustment & Collaboration
Forecast Pro makes it easy to collaborate with others to establish the final
forecast. A robust, Excel-like grid control allows easy adjustment by
percentage, increments, or by simply entering new values. Adjustments to
the forecast can be made at any level in the hierarchy, and all changes are
automatically reconciled. Handy comment fields make it easy to
document changes, and override reports provide total transparency.
Stakeholders can collaborate seamlessly in the application itself or via
Excel.
Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP)
In support of your organization’s S&OP process, you can import
supplementary data into Forecast Pro ‒ such as other forecasts, current
inventory, and open orders ‒ to build customized reports and graphs.
Forecast PRO Capabilities
New Product Forecasting
Forecast Pro enables you to map history from existing and/or
discontinued items into the new items you want to forecast. Product
Mapping (aka Item Supersession) is useful in a wide variety of situations
including forecasting replacement products, introducing product-line
extensions, transitioning to new warehouses, and many more.
Forecast Accuracy Reporting
Forecast Pro maintains an archive of your previous forecasts (both
statistically–generated and adjusted forecasts) so that you can compare
and contrast previous forecasts to what actually happened. With just a
quick glance at Forecast Pro’s “waterfall” reports you can zero in on what’s
working and what isn’t.
Forecast PRO Capabilities
Exception Reporting
Forecast Pro’s flexible exception reporting allows you to focus on areas
that need your attention. The reports are easily customizable to reflect
different performance metrics ‒ such as forecast vs. history or whether
forecast error exceeds a pre-defined threshold – and give you a quick way
to identify potential problem areas.
Forecast Value Add Reporting
With Forecast Value Add reporting you can track accuracy across each step
of your forecasting process. Easily compare the statistical forecast, final
forecast, and/or specific overrides to what actually happened. This at-a-
glance report helps you quickly identify which steps or participants in your
forecasting process are adding value and which are making your forecasts
less accurate.
Forecast Pro has allowed us to have deeper discussions with
better information. By coupling the quantitative framework
provided by Forecast Pro TRAC with the qualitative input
from sales and marketing, we are able to create true
consensus. The end result is not only buy-in from different
parts of the organization, but a crisper view of the market
and its needs.
Forecast Pro is one of the quickest yet
accurate forecasting tools that I have ever
come across.
The developments with Forecast Pro TRAC take our forecasting
process to new levels. We now have the opportunity to have a fully
integrated S&OP process using just one tool rather than many
disparate ones.
Testimonials
Demand Planning LLC helped us assess where we are now
and what is required to improve the process. It was very
useful in clarifying process requirements for an important
input to the service management. Was a good platform for
us to go to our companies and tailor to our particular needs.
John Romano, Honeywell Safety Products
Tony Johnson, Cardinal Health Australia
Osman Mustafa, Frito-Lay, Inc.
We partnered with Valtitude to assess our current approach to
the quantification of True Demand and to generate a proof-of-
concept for an improved methodology. The Valtitude team was
very thorough in their analysis of our business and provided a
number of key observations/recommendations which will
enable us to improve our application of True Demand. We
enjoyed working with them and would recommend them to any
business interested in improving their demand planning
processes.
Director of Supply Chain - It is remarkable that the implementation
of the software took only one month and offered outstanding
accuracy in results. ForecastPro TRAC is by far the easiest
forecasting tool I have come across and saves many hours of
monthly workload. Both senior management and I are very
impressed with Demand Planning LLC. Great job!
Mars Petcare US partnered with the Valtitude team in 2021 to
address specific questions and opportunities around the topic of
Demand Planning. The objective was to demonstrate how our
approach to the quantification of "true demand" could be
improved, in support of better forecasts and better service.
Valtitude conducted interviews and a diagnostic of our processes,
tools, and data. Outcomes provided important learnings and
insights. That was followed by a proof of concept for a new and
improved approach to "true demand", one which was analytically
sound and robust, a step forward relative to our previous
approaches. Valtitude helped us by bringing to the table in depth
knowledge of best practices, and an external perspective that
helped us look at our challenges under a new light. As result, we
feel confident about having achieved a new level of thought
leadership on the topic of true demand, which will help not just
our immediate demand planning group, but also have end-to-end
impact. Valtitude was the right partner for the types of questions
that we had, and we would recommend them for any organization
looking to advance their demand planning practices.
Demand Planning LLC has an amazing ability to morph into
employees of the company and tackle challenges head on. As a
team they delivered on their commitments and institutionalized a
new Statistical forecast process that fit within the business
constraints. A must hire!
