Method and system for combination of independent demand data streams
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- extracting first demand data from a first forecast demand data stream;
extracting second demand data from a second forecast demand data stream;
combining the first and second demand data based on at least one criteria to form a resultant demand data set; and
releasing the resultant data set for supply network planning.

Abstract
A system and method of combining independent demand forecast streams. Demand data is extracted from each of the demand forecast streams. The extracted data is combined based on one or more criteria to yield a single resultant demand data set. The resultant demand data set is released for supply network planning rather than any original forecast data stream.

9. A system comprising:
-
a first extractor to extract first demand data from a first forecast demand data stream;
a second extractor to extract second demand data from a second forecast demand data stream;
a database to retain historical demand data; and
a combination module to combine the first and second demand data into a single resultant data set based, at least in part, on the historical demand data. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A machine-accessible medium containing instructions that when executed cause a machine to:
-
extract first demand data from a first forecast demand data stream;
extract second demand data from a second forecast demand data stream;
combine the first and second demand data based on at least one criteria to form a result and demand data set; and
release the resultant data set for supply network planning. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
