Worst Practices in Forecasting: The Mechanics of Forecasting
Overview There is certainly no shortage of articles, books, consultants and even software vendors willing to tell their version of forecasting best practices. This white paper, however, is going to take a different angle. Instead of talking about the so-called "Best Practices" in forecasting, it will instead expose the seamy underbelly of the forecasting profession. Rather than asking one to implement all the various things the really good forecasting organizations does, one wants to help avoiding the things the really bad forecasting organizations do. Perhaps the surest way to achieve process improvements is by identifying and eliminating the worst practices in forecasting.
