Industries

One engine, four industry presets

Xovity Forecast ships with industry-specific terminology, demand-pattern priors, and scenario templates — so the system speaks your domain on day one.

Pharma

Cold-chain demand planning where stockouts have clinical consequences.

Challenges
  • Promotional pull-through, tender wins, and seasonal respiratory cycles overlap
  • Cold-chain inventory carries punitive holding cost
  • Regulatory shelf-life limits over-ordering as a safety strategy
How Xovity Intelligence helps
  • SARIMA and Holt-Winters capture respiratory and allergy seasonality per SKU
  • Drift detector flags tender losses and formulary changes within one cycle
  • Scenario engine models launch ramps, supplier disruption, and channel switching

Retail & FMCG

SKU-store level forecasts that respect promotion cannibalisation.

Challenges
  • Tens of thousands of SKU × store combinations refreshed weekly
  • Promotional uplift and price elasticity warp baseline demand
  • New-product introductions with little or no history
How Xovity Intelligence helps
  • Ensemble Top-3 dampens idiosyncratic store-level noise
  • Promotion overlays separate baseline demand from uplift, preventing double-counting
  • Like-item assignment seeds forecasts for new SKUs from analogue history

Manufacturing

Capacity-aware planning that ties forecast to production reality.

Challenges
  • Long lead-time components must be ordered against an uncertain forecast
  • Bill-of-materials explosion multiplies forecast error downstream
  • Capacity constraints make over-forecasting as costly as under-forecasting
How Xovity Intelligence helps
  • P10/P50/P90 bands feed inventory policy at the correct service level per component
  • S&OP workflow brings Supply and Finance into the planning loop before commitment
  • What-if scenarios test capacity ramp, supplier dual-sourcing, and tariff shocks

Energy

Load and consumption forecasting for distribution and retail energy.

Challenges
  • Weather-driven volatility on top of seasonal and tariff patterns
  • Distributed generation and storage shift net-demand profiles
  • Regulatory reporting demands defensible, reproducible forecasts
How Xovity Intelligence helps
  • SARIMA and exponential smoothing capture intraday and seasonal cycles
  • External regressors fold weather and tariff signals into the baseline
  • Audit trail and versioning satisfy regulator-grade reproducibility
