Define it together
A useful scope.
A clear starting point.
Available to discuss and scope. The right approach depends on your systems, information, people and the decisions you want to support.
What we can scope
- Assess data suitability and define a baseline for comparison.
- Build and evaluate forecasts with uncertainty, limitations and human review.
What helps us get started
- Historical data with dates and measure definitions
- Known events, seasonality and business changes
- The planning decision and acceptable error or uncertainty
Worth thinking through
Past patterns may not continue. Forecasts should support judgement and scenario planning, with particular care around financial or other consequential decisions.
