Demand forecasting is considered as one of the basic operations which enable the whole supply chain
management activities. Based on the demand forecast, the manufacturer decides how many products to make,
how much capacity to be needed, and how much raw material to buy.
It is traditionally the making and sales (M/S) who are responsible for demand forecasting. They have frequent
contacts with the customers and better understanding of the market. Depending on product types, market size,
and sales volume, M/S usually has several segments for demand forecasting
