The history of retail forecasting… 1 Entire contents © 2008, Quantum Retail Technology, Inc.
In the early days… Highly skilled mathematicians created complex models for different forecasting problems  Most were based around time series forecasting Models: Box-Jenkins, Holt-Winters, Croston Algorithms could help develop: ,[object Object]
 linear regressions
 pattern recognition ,[object Object]
The 70s: The start of retail technology… Computing and processing become somewhat affordable INFOREM was born Pros: ,[object Object]
 Used “profiles” to govern forecasts
 Good for predictable environments:
Grocery, fast-moving consumer goodsCons ,[object Object]
 Profiles difficult to get right
 Required lots of processing power,[object Object]
The 80s: Retail technology became faster… New models started to go outside of time series forecasting Retailers built automation components around INFOREM More robust tools became available: E3: The next generation of INFOREM  was released SAS: Enterprise time series (ETS) Retailers still working with hierarchy  levels, product groups and averaging
Automation made forecasting easier, and it was good.
The 90s: The computing revolution… Client-server technology allowed for more computing power to be available Technology became affordable Pros: ,[object Object]
 Bench-marking became common
 Pick best / best fit
Retek: RDF, SAS: HPF, Teradata/Sterling
 Automation and optimization components were enhanced
