Forecast review cadence

Forecasting is a structured estimate for a defined decision, horizon and level of detail. This guide introduces forecast review cadence and shows where it fits in a practical planning cycle.

Practitioner lens

Keep the decision in view when using forecast review cadence. A forecast for replenishment, capacity and annual budgeting may need different horizons and different levels of aggregation.

First experiment

Record the forecast, override and outcome separately so the next review can distinguish model from judgment.

This is an original educational brief. It is a starting point for discussion, not a claim that one technique fits every supply chain.
