Demand Sensing
Business Challenges
In today's fast-paced business environment, market volatility, and uncertainty are becoming increasingly common. To succeed in such an environment, businesses must be able to quickly and accurately respond to changes in customer demand patterns. Otherwise, the risk of overstocking or understocking inventory becomes a major issue impacting costs, profitability, and customer satisfaction.
Demand Sensing should efficiently leverage data from various sources to predict customers' demand patterns, enabling businesses to align production schedules with actual market demands that facilitate demand-driven sales. It must also enable companies to optimize their inventory management by identifying the gap between consumer patterns and market trends, which helps companies determine optimal inventory levels, minimize stockouts, avoid excess inventory, and reduce carrying costs.
Demand Sensing should also drive supply chain efficiency by aligning production and inventory levels with actual demand. By identifying demand fluctuations and customer preferences automatically, companies can effectively tailor their operational strategies to improve profitability, reduce market volatility and drive customer satisfaction.
The Demand Sensing Solution
Futurmaster's Bloom Demand Sensing solution goes beyond traditional demand sensing approaches. It employs artificial intelligence and advanced analytics and takes into account a wide range of exogenous data sources, such as weather patterns, social media activity, and financial market trends, among others that impact consumer behavior.
By using artificial intelligence and advanced analytics, Bloom Demand Sensing solution can automatically detect correlations between these exogenous factors, the sales volumes for each product, and sales location, allowing businesses to develop more accurate demand forecasts and make data-driven decisions about inventory planning, production scheduling, and supply chain management.
Moreover, the Bloom Demand Sensing ability to detect and analyze the impact of exogenous factors on consumer behavior can help businesses anticipate changes in demand patterns and respond more quickly to market shifts. The result is that businesses attain a significant competitive advantage, enabling them to stay ahead of the competition and capture market opportunities.
Differentiators
AI-Backed Intelligent Algorithms
Utilizing AI-backed algorithms enables accurate predictions, faster data processing speed, and uncovering complex demand patterns.
Adaptation of Non-Linear Effects
Most times, the relationship between variables is not predictable and complex. Adopting these complex scenarios makes it easy to adjust strategies accordingly.
Multiple External Variables
External variables, when overlooked, limit the reliability of demand forecasts. Analyzing these variables, such as weather conditions, social media sentiments, and financial trends, ensures a comprehensive understanding of demand drivers.
Detection of Correlation
Identifying meaningful correlations between multiple external variables drives better decision-making processes, enables better anticipation of demand fluctuations, and makes it easy to adjust operational strategies according to customer behavior.
