Product view

Group-level forecasting

Forecast at the level that matters: SKU, family, site, region or global rollup. O8 preserves SKU/location detail so teams can still act operationally. Apply uplifts, fixed adjustments or growth assumptions quickly for promotions, launches and sales targets.

Promotions or marketing activity may change demand
Seasonality is changing
External disruption may affect buying behaviour
Commercial teams need to model upside or downside scenarios
Supply teams need early visibility of future pressure
The business wants to test demand assumptions before committing inventory or capacity
