Problem
In the past, demand forecasting was computed manually on a worksheet, with no statistical models employed. Inputs from the teams of Demand Planning, Sales, and Marketing were communicated through various media (Viber, email, phone) which made it harder to consolidate data. At the same time, Demand Planning KPIs such as forecast accuracy were not consistently monitored.

Confidence level is up in demand forecasting. We are also able to track our KPIs regularly.
The OmniQuest team exhibits a strong sense of business acumen and project ownership. They are able to recommend solutions looking at both the micro and macro levels. They are easy to work with, very responsive and have gone above and beyond their scope of duty.
