Forecast Accuracy PRO Bundle

$89.00

Stop reporting forecast accuracy. Start improving it.

Most teams know their MAPE. Few know why it's where it is — or what to do about it Monday morning. The Forecast Accuracy PRO Bundle gives you both: a professional-grade workbook that calculates every metric that matters, and a step-by-step playbook that tells you exactly what to do when the numbers turn red.

This is the tool S&OP leaders, demand planners, and supply chain analysts use when a single accuracy number isn't enough to drive real improvement.

What's in the Bundle

Forecast Accuracy Pro — Excel Workbook (8 Sheets)

• Data Input — Enter up to 15 SKUs across 3 planners and 5 product groups, with 24 months of Forecast vs. Actual history and a root cause dropdown for every miss
• Calc Engine — Auto-calculates rolling MAPE, WAPE, Bias, and ABC/XYZ segmentation on 3 / 6 / 12-month windows. Change the As-Of Month and every metric recalculates instantly
• Forecast Value Add (FVA) — Measures whether your planners' forecasts actually beat a naive baseline. If the model outperforms the planner, you have a process problem, not a data problem
• Planner Scorecard — Rolling accuracy, bias direction, and FVA ranked by planner — the only view that tells you who needs coaching vs. who needs better data
• Executive Dashboard — Company KPI scorecard with Simple and Volume-Weighted MAPE side by side, product group rollup, trend, and exception flags — ready to present in any S&OP or IBP review
• Planner Action Log — Track what was diagnosed, what was decided, and who owns the follow-up. Turns your review from a report into a management system
• Coaching One-Pager — Auto-populates a planner-specific 1:1 brief from the workbook data. Walk into every coaching conversation already prepared

Forecast Accuracy Improvement Playbook — PDF Guide

• How to read MAPE vs. WAPE vs. Bias — and which one to lead with in a leadership review
• Why rolling 3 / 6 / 12-month windows matter and when to act on each
• ABC/XYZ segmentation: how to set accuracy targets that match what's actually forecastable
• Root cause diagnosis framework: 8 common miss patterns and the fix for each
• The Monday Morning Test: how to get from number to action before lunch
• Coaching conversation guide: how to turn a bad MAPE into a development conversation
