Key Features
Time Series ML Forecasting for FP&A
Provides FP&A and Business Analysts with a guided experience to build, deploy and consume time-series ML models all in a single, unified platform.
- Pre-built systematized processes and infrastructure conquer the traditional complexities of disparate development tools.
- Automated state of the art data science process and techniques that are typically done manually by teams of data scientists.
- AI Engine automatically adapts to generate the best forecast possible for the training data provided.
Auto-Generate Thousands of Demand Forecasts
Break down the traditionally high barriers with time series machine learning models at scale to optimize planning across the enterprise.
- Create thousands of daily and/or weekly demand planning ML forecasts across products and locations.
- Capture business intuition to inform models and increase model performance rather than relying on generalized “top-down” models.
- Unify and align demand plans with driver-based sales, material costs inventory, and labor plans across the P&L, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow.
Continuous Model Monitoring & Retraining
Increase forecast accuracy and performance by leveraging ML scenarios across reports, visualizations, forms and dashboards.
- Reduce forecast bias with ML scenarios, compare against human forecasting to drive better dialogue and collaboration.
- Monitor model health and performance over time; built-in model retraining ensures continuous forecasting and scenario analysis.
- Drill-back and back testing capabilities create transparency, trust and confidence in budgets, plans, and forecasts.
