Abstract

This project proposes a solution to leverage collaborative forecast information for planning using quantitative techniques. A statistical forecast is generated using a top-down and bottom-up approach. A joint forecast, which is a forecast weighted by statistical and collaborative forecast, is then generated. On an average, the joint forecast was much more accurate than either the collaborative or the statistical forecast.
