A Modern Retail Forecasting System in Production

Phillip Yelland

Foresight: The International Journal of Applied Forecasting, 2020, issue 59, 5-15

Abstract: This is the third and final installment of an article documenting the large-scale demand-forecasting system developed by U.S. retailer Target. The first two articles in the series described the architecture and design of the system and recounted lessons learned in the development process. This last piece explores the issues that arise when a forecasting system such as Target's is actually deployed to provide forecasts for users and recommends steps that can be taken to address those issues.
