Components and Methods
Supply Chain Management: Strategy, Planning, and Operation, 5/e Authors: Sunil Chopra, Peter Meindl and D. V. Kalra
Components and Methods
• Qualitative
• Time series
Use historical demand only
Best with stable demand
• Causal
Relationship between demand and some other factor
• Simulation
Imitate consumer choices that give rise to demand
