What is Demand Forecasting?

Demand forecasting in procurement involves the systematic analysis and prediction of future demand for goods and services within the supply chain. This strategic approach utilizes historical data, market trends, and other relevant factors to anticipate the quantity and types of products or services needed.

Efficient demand forecasting is critical for procurement teams aiming to optimize inventory levels, minimize excess stock, and ensure timely availability of resources. By leveraging advanced analytics and data-driven methodologies, organizations can enhance their procurement strategies, reduce costs, and foster a more responsive and adaptive supply chain.
