Using best practice business forecasting and demand management techniques in the integrated business environment

This two-day business forecasting course covers the fundamentals of demand management and planning, including roles/responsibilities and accountabilities, definitions, process flows, levels, timing and horizons, technologies, and mechanics.

The instructors explain best practices companies are applying today; beginning with giving you a perspective on broad demand management techniques and success drivers and ending with you knowing where the gaps are in your business process, tools, and people capabilities, and what to do about them when you get back to your desk. There is no theory, only practical, applied concepts.
