In every manufacturing facility, there seems to be one problem that seems to be universal, regardless of size, product, or process.  That problem is Data Gaps.

The planning and scheduling processes require the coordination of many factors, such as...

Demand forecasting is the process of predicting what the demand for certain products will be in the future. It identifies what both current and future customers will want to buy and tells manufacturing facilities what they should actually produce.
