Manhattan Associates Unveils First Forecasting Method for Intermittent and Seasonal Demand
Press Releases
Unified Forecasting Method™ automatically addresses changes in intermittent and seasonal product demand, saving millions in retail inventory costs NEW YORK CITY — January 12, 2010 — Carrying the right amount of inventory is a delicate balance for retailers, who must anticipate the demand for particular products based on seasonal and intermittent market trends throughout the calendar year. Keeping enough inventory on hand to service the demand spikes certainly addresses revenue and customer satisfaction, but ties up capital in slow movers that could be leveraged elsewhere—a significant concern in the current economy where every dollar is important. To address these challenges, Manhattan Associates (NASDAQ: MANH) has created the Unified Forecasting Method™, an algorithm leveraged within Manhattan's Demand Forecasting solution to automatically sense shifts in market demand and slash wasted inventory based on seasonal and intermittently demanded products....
