Demand Planning and Forecasting workshop, September 2011

September 21-22 at Four Points by Sheraton

Our recently concluded May 2011 two day Demand Planning and forecasting workshop was an immense success. I personally enjoyed the interaction with the attendees from a variety of industries.  At the conclusion of the workshop, people left happy that they learned the core of demand planning and the methodology required for forecasting.  You can see all the testimonials from the May workshop online at our website.

In this type of specialized two-day course, we explain the modeling methodology and process behind accurate demand forecasts and how to effectively use promotional information to arrive at a consensus forecast. We focus on demand modeling using statistical techniques, the method to perform model diagnostics, forecast accuracy measurement and the process to incorporate market intelligence.

To incorporate the feedback from May 2011 workshop, one of the topic that we will be spending more time in our upcoming September 2011 workshop will be ‘How to forecast with decomposition models using Microsoft Excel’.  We will show you how to calculate level, trend and seasonality and how to develop a forecast using excel.
