A journey towards a smart planning

Nowadays, demand forecasting has presented challenges and inefficiencies. A substantial portion of the effort and resources currently focus on operational situations. CALIX elevates the planning level, enabling companies to allocate more time to strategies and planning optimization to improve outcomes by addressing the forecasting challenges on each of the following fronts.

DATA FORESCAST REVIEW MANAGEMENT LEARNING

DATA

Acquiring and processing data can be challenging due to their large volume and limited resources. CALIX provides a customized solution for processing copious amounts of data, eliminating the need to rely on other internal resources to generate your pattern.

FORESCAST

There is a lack of automation and limited tools that result in different unsolved problems with the same formula, leading to a one-size-fits-all approach to forecasting. CALIX employs innovative methods to produce precise forecasts, without relying on data that does not add real value to the forecast. Unlike the market, CALIX aims to develop tailored models to each SKU group, ensuring that the best results are obtained for each unique problem.

REVIEW

Course corrections can be challenging as there may not be any record or structure in place, which results in significant rework. However, CALIX maintains a record of all the forecasts generated in each period, including t and changes made in the forecast to achieve a consensus. Moreover, forecast analysis enables more informed decision-making when it comes to modifying plans for a particular SKU.

MANAGEMENT

As the process lacks agility and formal documentation, it is difficult to understand or tackle root causes. It often wants to put out fires. CALIX offers monitoring of the most critical demand KPIs, and tracking can happen in real-time or near-real time. Moreover, the level of demand analysis enables the generation of actionable insights as quickly as possible to enhance efficiency in problem-solving.

LEARNING

With low levels of governance, the company overlooks valuable knowledge, and much of the qualitative information remains disconnected from the system. CALIX’s structured demand analysis presentation simplifies learning about demand from the perspective of fulfilling needs. The analyses are static, enabling the storage of knowledge that can be used by everyone who needs it.
