10. Service Level To Customers
- Current world setup requires business to deliver High Service Level.
- Accordingly we have cost implications for this High Service Level:
- Investment in developing better forecast to meet customers demand.
- Higher inventory levels to meet unexpected customers demand.
- Investment in logistics (Warehousing & Transportation).

Demand Planning
14. - Aim of Demand Planning is to reduce error, NOT to predict 100% accurate projections.
- 3 Demand Concepts:
- Target / Business Plan.
- History / Actuals.
- Demand / Forecast.
- 3 Types of Forecasting:
- Qualitative techniques (Expert opinions, sample of users).
- Time series (Historical data & pattern changes).
- Causal models (relationships between variables / Regressions).

19. Forecasting Tools For Maturity Phase
Time Series Options:
- Linear (Trend Adjusted Method).
- Random (Moving Average, Exponential Smoothing &
Naive Forecasting).
- Seasonal (Seasonal Index).
20. Forecasting Tools For Maturity Phase
- Steps for building future forecast:
- Gather historical data.
- Leave the most recent part of the data.
- Apply different forecasting methods (scenarios) on older part of the data to
forecast the recent part of the date (forecasting the actual).
- Measure forecast error for each scenario.
- Select the method with the least forecast error.
- Apply the selected method to forecast the upcoming period.
- Keep on doing it regularly. Forecast improves by time.
26. Forecasting Tips
- Forecast total market, then plan resources based on your product / brand target
market share.
- At least 6 points before using a statistical method.
- Use Naive forecasting for the 1st couple of points (Months / Weeks).
- Differentiate between Pipeline filling & actual customer demand.
- Data cleansing required to remove outliers & extreme external factors.
28. Forecasting Tip For Managing P&L
- Forecast (baseline) should be sold without marketing / trade
activities.
- Difference between Business Target & Forecast is usually
supported by activities (marketing / promotions budget).
- Accordingly, build your marketing budget based on activities
needed to close the gap between Target & Forecast (Putting
branding aside).

35. Types of Inventory
- Raw Materials – RM
- Maintenance, Repair & Operating Supplies – MRO
- Finished Goods – FG
Reasons for Inventory
- Decoupling Function
- Demand Variability
- Supply Inconsistency
- Price Variability / Hedging
Inventory Cost = Item Cost + Ordering Cost + Holding Cost
The Question Is: How Much To Order & When To Order?
