Education Demand Patterns Time Series: The repeated observations of demand for a service or product in their order of occurrence. There are five basic patterns of most time series. a. Horizontal. The fluctuation of data around a constant mean. b. Trend. The systematic increase or decrease in the mean of the series over time. c. Seasonal. A repeatable pattern of increases or decreases in demand, depending on the time of day, week, month, or season. d. Cyclical. The less predictable gradual increases or decreases over longer periods of time (years or decades). e. Random. The unforecastable variation in demand.

Education Deciding What To Forecast Few companies err by more than 5 percent when forecasting total demand for all their services or products. Errors in forecasts for individual items may be much higher. Level of Aggregation: The act of clustering several similar services or products so that companies can obtain more accurate forecasts. Units of measurement: Forecasts of sales revenue are not helpful because prices fluctuate. Forecast the number of units of demand then translate into sales revenue estimates Stock-keeping unit (SKU): An individual item or product that has an identifying code and is held in inventory somewhere along the value chain.
8.
© 2007 Pearson
Education Choosing the Type of Forecasting Technique Judgment methods: A type of qualitative method that translates the opinions of managers, expert opinions, consumer surveys, and sales force estimates into quantitative estimates. Causal methods: A type of quantitative method that uses historical data on independent variables, such as promotional campaigns, economic conditions, and competitors’ actions, to predict demand. Time-series analysis: A statistical approach that relies heavily on historical demand data to project the future size of demand and recognizes trends and seasonal patterns. Collaborative planning, forecasting, and replenishment (CPFR): A nine-step process for value-chain management that allows a manufacturer and its customers to collaborate on making the forecast by using the Internet.

Education Judgment Methods Sales force estimates: The forecasts that are compiled from estimates of future demands made periodically by members of a company’s sales force. Executive opinion: A forecasting method in which the opinions, experience, and technical knowledge of one or more managers are summarized to arrive at a single forecast. Executive opinion can also be used for technological forecasting to keep abreast of the latest advances in technology. Market research: A systematic approach to determine external consumer interest in a service or product by creating and testing hypotheses through data-gathering surveys. Delphi method: A process of gaining consensus from a group of experts while maintaining their anonymity.

Education Guidelines for Using Judgment Forecasts Judgment forecasting is clearly needed when no quantitative data are available to use quantitative forecasting approaches. Guidelines for the use of judgment to adjust quantitative forecasts to improve forecast quality are as follows: 1. Adjust quantitative forecasts when they tend to be inaccurate and the decision maker has important contextual knowledge. 2. Make adjustments to quantitative forecasts to compensate for specific events, such as advertising campaigns, the actions of competitors, or international developments.

Education Causal Methods Linear Regression Causal methods are used when historical data are available and the relationship between the factor to be forecasted and other external or internal factors can be identified. Linear regression: A causal method in which one variable (the dependent variable) is related to one or more independent variables by a linear equation. Dependent variable: The variable that one wants to forecast. Independent variables: Variables that are assumed to affect the dependent variable and thereby “cause” the results observed in the past.

Education Trend-Adjusted Exponential Smoothing A trend in a time series is a systematic increase or decrease in the average of the series over time. Where a significant trend is present, exponential smoothing approaches must be modified; otherwise, the forecasts tend to be below or above the actual demand. Trend-adjusted exponential smoothing method: The method for incorporating a trend in an exponentially smoothed forecast. With this approach, the estimates for both the average and the trend are smoothed, requiring two smoothing constants. For each period, we calculate the average and the trend.

Education Seasonal Patterns Seasonal patterns are regularly repeated upward or downward movements in demand measured in periods of less than one year. An easy way to account for seasonal effects is to use one of the techniques already described but to limit the data in the time series to those time periods in the same season. If the weighted moving average method is used, high weights are placed on prior periods belonging to the same season. Multiplicative seasonal method is a method whereby seasonal factors are multiplied by an estimate of average demand to arrive at a seasonal forecast. Additive seasonal method is a method whereby seasonal forecasts are generated by adding a constant to the estimate of the average demand per season.
38.
© 2007 Pearson
Education Multiplicative Seasonal Method Step 1: For each year, calculate the average demand for each season by dividing annual demand by the number of seasons per year. Step 2: For each year, divide the actual demand for each season by the average demand per season, resulting in a seasonal index for each season of the year, indicating the level of demand relative to the average demand. Step 3: Calculate the average seasonal index for each season using the results from Step 2. Add the seasonal indices for each season and divide by the number of years of data. Step 4: Calculate each season’s forecast for next year.

The business is seasonal, with a peak in the third quarter and a trough in the first quarter. Forecast customer demand for each quarter of year 5, based on an estimate of total year 5 demand of 2,600 customers. Demand has been increasing by an average of 400 customers each year. The forecast demand is found by extending that trend, and projecting an annual demand in year 5 of 2,200 + 400 = 2,600 customers.

Education Measures of Forecast Error Cumulative sum of forecast errors (CFE): A measurement of the total forecast error that assesses the bias in a forecast. Mean squared error (MSE): A measurement of the dispersion of forecast errors. Mean absolute deviation (MAD): A measurement of the dispersion of forecast errors. Standard deviation (): A measurement of the dispersion of forecast errors. Et 2 n MSE = MAD = |Et | n = (Et – E )2 n – 1 CFE = Et

Education MAPE = [|Et | / Dt ](100) n Measures of Forecast Error Mean absolute percent error (MAPE): A measurement that relates the forecast error to the level of demand and is useful for putting forecast performance in the proper perspective. Tracking signal: A measure that indicates whether a method of forecasting is accurately predicting actual changes in demand. Tracking signal = CFE MAD

Education Criteria for Selecting Time-Series Methods Forecast error measures provide important information for choosing the best forecasting method for a service or product. They also guide managers in selecting the best values for the parameters needed for the method: n for the moving average method, the weights for the weighted moving average method, and for exponential smoothing. The criteria to use in making forecast method and parameter choices include 1. minimizing bias 2. minimizing MAPE, MAD, or MSE 3. meeting managerial expectations of changes in the components of demand 4. minimizing the forecast error last period

Education Using Multiple Techniques Research during the last two decades suggests that combining forecasts from multiple sources often produces more accurate forecasts. Combination forecasts: Forecasts that are produced by averaging independent forecasts based on different methods or different data or both. Focus forecasting: A method of forecasting that selects the best forecast from a group of forecasts generated by individual techniques. The forecasts are compared to actual demand, and the method that produces the forecast with the least error is used to make the forecast for the next period. The method used for each item may change from period to period.

Education Forecasting as a Process The forecast process itself, typically done on a monthly basis, consists of structured steps. They often are facilitated by someone who might be called a demand manager, forecast analyst, or demand/supply planner.

Education © 2007 Pearson Education Some Principles for the Forecasting Process • Better processes yield better forecasts. • Demand forecasting is being done in virtually every company. The challenge is to do it better than the competition. • Better forecasts result in better customer service and lower costs, as well as better relationships with suppliers and customers. • The forecast can and must make sense based on the big picture, economic outlook, market share, and so on. • The best way to improve forecast accuracy is to focus on reducing forecast error. • Bias is the worst kind of forecast error; strive for zero bias. • Whenever possible, forecast at higher, aggregate levels. Forecast in detail only where necessary. • Far more can be gained by people collaborating and communicating well than by using the most advanced forecasting technique or model.
