Improving Forecast Accuracy for New Product Launches Using Machine Learning Models
The Tauber team, using business analytics, developed a machine learning solution to better forecast new product demand. First, the team developed an algorithm to select the most appropriate like products based on product characteristics. In addition, prediction algorithms were developed to directly forecast demand without using like product selection. To help ensure the realization of expected cost savings, the Tauber team made recommendations for wide-scale implementation of the new process throughout the company.
