As product options have grown, so has the difficulty in predicting which products customers will buy. Poor sales forecasts lead to too much inventory — which ties up capital — or too little inventory, which results in stock-outs and unhappy customers. JDA Demand can help businesses create forecasts that accurately predict and shape demand across a product’s complete lifecycle and across the supply chain.
How does it solve your business challenges?
Demand and supply mismatches are costly, damaging both customer and trading partner relationships. JDA Demand can help your business move from demand forecasting to demand management by creating a synchronized view of demand across the supply chain. This shared view enables you to integrate a consolidated forecast with traditional activities such as replenishment and warehousing, as well as transportation planning, rough-cut financial planning, promotions and customer assortments.
What are the benefits?
- Improved forecast accuracy
- Optimized inventory resulting from improved demand-supply matching
- Increased inventory turns
- Enhanced pricing and promotions strategies
