Ingest and reconcile
Sales, promotions, weather, events, and prices normalized; hierarchies built once and reused across SKUs, stores, and time.

Modelli continui che gestiscono picchi e cadenza regolare—mantengono il contesto promozionale, supportano gli override del planner e si integrano con l'ERP.
The problem
Models tuned for Black Friday and Christmas miss the quiet weeks; models tuned for normal days collapse on peaks. Planners maintain two parallel processes.
Promotion lift is mixed with organic demand in historical data. The next forecast confuses cause and effect, and the planning team spends the cycle untangling it.
Real forecasts need SKU-store-day granularity. Most engines either give up on granularity or burn the warehouse compute budget.
Planners know things the model doesn't—launches, weather, local events. Without a structured override and tracking, that knowledge stays in spreadsheets.
Come funziona
Sales, promotions, weather, events, and prices normalized; hierarchies built once and reused across SKUs, stores, and time.
Hierarchical models with promotion lift decomposition and confidence intervals—planners see which factors drove the prediction.
Planner overrides captured with reason codes; downstream replenishment uses both model and override—with full lineage to audit.
Flow adapts to your channels, ERP, and replenishment cadence.
Cosa include
Hierarchical models, promotion lift, planner workbench, and ERP integration in one layer on Synapse—delivered with planners owning the override workflow.
Single model family that handles peaks (Black Friday, launches) and regular cadence without two parallel processes.
Decomposes historical lift from baseline; future promotions modeled with what-if simulation.
Forecasts coherent across SKU, store, region, and channel—no manual top-down/bottom-up.
Distributed inference on the largest catalogs without warehouse compute meltdown.
Reason-coded overrides with audit trail; model learns from overrides over time.
Native connectors to SAP, Oracle, and replenishment engines—forecasts post directly to the plan.
