Build demand forecasts using time series, causal models, and expert judgment for planning, inventory, and capacity decisions with scenario analysis.
Build demand forecasts using time series, causal models, and expert judgment for planning, inventory, and capacity decisions with scenario analysis.
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Build accurate demand forecasts using multiple methodologies. Combines statistical models with market intelligence for actionable predictions.
Quarterly/annual demand planning New product launch forecasting Inventory optimization Capacity planning decisions Budget cycle preparation
Best for: Established products with 24+ months of history. Decompose into: Trend + Seasonality + Cyclical + Residual Moving Average (3-month): Forecast = (Month_n + Month_n-1 + Month_n-2) / 3 Weighted Moving Average: Forecast = (0.5 × Month_n) + (0.3 × Month_n-1) + (0.2 × Month_n-2) Exponential Smoothing (α = 0.3): Forecast_t+1 = α × Actual_t + (1-α) × Forecast_t
Best for: Products where external factors drive demand. Key drivers to model: Price elasticity: % demand change per 1% price change Marketing spend: Lag effect (typically 2-6 weeks) Seasonality index: Monthly coefficient vs annual average Economic indicators: GDP growth, consumer confidence, industry PMI Competitor actions: New entrants, price changes, promotions Demand = β₀ + β₁(Price) + β₂(Marketing) + β₃(Season) + β₄(Economic) + ε
Best for: New products, market disruptions, limited data. Methods: Delphi method: 3+ expert rounds, anonymous, converging estimates Sales force composite: Bottom-up from territory reps (apply 15-20% optimism correction) Market research: Survey-based purchase intent (apply 30-40% intent-to-purchase conversion) Analogous forecasting: Map to similar product launch curves

Week 1: Statistical forecast generation (auto-run models) Week 2: Market intelligence overlay (sales input, competitor intel) Week 3: Consensus meeting — align Sales, Marketing, Ops, Finance Week 4: Finalize, communicate to supply chain, track vs prior forecast

Safety Stock = Z × σ_demand × √(Lead Time) Where: Z = Service level factor (95% = 1.65, 98% = 2.05, 99% = 2.33) σ_demand = Standard deviation of demand Lead Time = In same units as demand period

MAPE consistently >20% — model needs retraining Persistent positive bias — sales team sandbagging Persistent negative bias — over-optimism, check incentive structure Tracking signal outside ±4 — systematic error, investigate root cause Forecast never changes — "spreadsheet copy-paste" problem No external inputs — pure statistical = blind to market shifts
