How ForeQast brings real-time intelligence to supply chain planning

These days, supply chains are more tangled than ever. With teams in marketing, finance, planning, and operations all managing their own data in separate silos, things slip through the cracks. Everyone’s working off different spreadsheets, tools, and numbers, which makes it nearly impossible to get a real-time view of what’s actually happening. And when you’re trying to keep up with demand, track inventory, and catch issues before they become costly, that disconnect can really hurt.

ForeQast was built to fix this. It’s more than a platform—it’s like a helpful partner that pulls all your data into one live, unified view. But this isn’t just another data connector. ForeQast actively brings together and refreshes information from every department, so you can finally see your plans clearly, spot potential issues, and understand what’s affecting your targets—all in one place.

Keeping everyone aligned with a unified plan

ForeQast starts with the big picture. We focus on the Integrated Business Plan (IBP) and work down to every function in Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP)—like product management, demand forecasting, inventory, and supply planning. By bringing all this into one plan, ForeQast makes sure everyone’s actions support the company’s goals. And since it integrates seamlessly with ERP systems, it’s not just individual teams that are aligned—the whole operation is moving in sync.

One source of truth for every team

In most setups, each team is working with its own version of the truth. ForeQast changes that by pulling live data from ERP, CRM, and other systems to create a single, reliable view for everyone. Whether you’re in sales, finance, or supply chain, you’re all looking at up-to-date information. That means fewer surprises, fewer costly mistakes, and fewer unhappy customers.

AI that stops problems before they escalate

ForeQast doesn’t just sit there gathering data—it actively helps you make sense of it. With advanced AI algorithms, it can diagnose issues as they come up, so you’re not left scrambling after the fact. Let’s say last month’s sales target was missed. Instead of piecing together the “why” yourself, you can ask ForeQast, and it’ll analyze the data to find the root cause, whether it’s a forecast mismatch or an inventory issue. It’s about getting answers and making adjustments before small problems turn into big ones.

Turning planning into a real-time process

With ForeQast, supply chain planning isn’t just something you check off once a month. The platform’s always updating, so you can look at it daily, weekly—whatever works for you. This means your S&OP process isn’t static. It’s constantly responding to changes, giving you a planning cycle that’s fresh, adaptive, and ready to deal with any curveballs.

Flexibility to start where you need it

One of the best parts? You don’t have to dive in all at once. ForeQast’s modular design lets you start with the area that needs the most attention, like inventory management or demand planning, and then expand as you go. It’s flexible, so you’re not locked into a one-size-fits-all approach. You can build the solution that fits your business best.

Ready to make supply chain planning proactive?

ForeQast helps turn supply chain planning from a series of reactive “fire drills” into a streamlined, proactive strategy.
