Use management, marketing, purchasing, engineering

Forecasting Process
1. Identify the
purpose of forecast

2. Collect historical
data

3. Plot data and


identify patterns

6. Check forecast accuracy


with one or more measures

5. Develop/compute forecast
for period of historical data

4. Select a forecast model


that seems appropriate
for data

7.
Is accuracy
of forecast
acceptable?

8a. Forecast over


planning horizon

8b. Select new forecast


model or adjust parameters
of existing model

9. Adjust forecast based


on additional qualitative
information and insight

10. Monitor results and


measure forecast accuracy

When to Order

Reorder Point Example

Reorder Point is the level of inventory


at which a new order is placed

Demand = 10,000 yards/year


Store open 311 days/year
Daily demand = 10,000 / 311 = 32.154 yards/day
Lead time = L = 10 days

R = dL
where
d = demand rate per period
L = lead time

R = dL = (32.154)(10) = 321.54 yards

QPR Example

Direct cost = $30/unit


Rework cost = $12/unit
Start with 100 motors per day
80% are good, 50% of defective units can be reworked
Base case:

Case 2: Reduce processing cost to $26 and rework to $10


QPR =

80 + 10
(100)($26) + (10)($10)

(100) = 3.33

Case 3: Increase initial good-quality to 95%
