– Compute a variety of error measures. 2
Corporate Planning (1)
• Determine organization : 5W1H
- WHY it should do ?
- WHERE it should be ?
- WHAT it should do ?
- WHEN it should do to be done ?
- WHO should do ?
- HOW it should do ?
5
Corporate Planning (2)
• A deliberate and conscious attempt to anticipate and “Forward Look” the environment.
• Looking ahead systematically.
6
Planning Steps (1)
• ASSESS - Internal and Environment
Factors (SWOT)
• FORMULATE - Corporate Objectives,
Strategies and Action Plans
• CASCADE - Corporate Objectives,
Strategies, Action Plans down to Lower
Levels (One Layer at a time)
7
Planning Steps (2)
• QUANTIFY - Action Plans &
Strategies into Budgets starting with lowest Operating Unit.
• CONSOLIDATE - Budgets upwards until the corporate level is reached.
• IMPLEMENT - Plans
• MONITOR - Feedback and Control
8

Importance of Forecasting
Business Planning
(Demands for products, Return on Investment,
Sales Volume, Expense, etc.)
Analytical Tools
Mathematical Techniques
Forecasting
11
Steps of Forecasting (1)
1. Determine the forecast objective
2. Select the items or quantities to be forecasted
3. Determined time horizon of forecast
- Short term / Medium term / Long term
4. Select Forecasting MODEL (S)
5. Gather data needed to make the forecast
6. Validate forecasting model
7. Make the forecast
8. Implement the results
12
Steps of Forecasting (2)
•
Initiating, designing, implementing forecasting system ==> Systematic way and Automatically
• Computer System
==> Input (Files / Records)
Processing (Software / Program)
Output (Files / Reports)
• No Single method is superior, whatever
(quantitative, subjective, mixed) works best should be used

Types of Forecasting (2)
•
Time-Series Models
– Use past data to make a forecast over
a period of time
– Three techniques of time-series models
1. Moving Average
2. Exponential Smoothing
3. Trend Projections
15
Types of Forecasting (3)
• Causal Models
– Incorporate the variables that might influence the quantity being
