1 CTL.SC1x -Supply Chain & Logistics Fundamentals Time Series Analysis
2 Demand Sales By Month What do you notice? 2
3 Demand Sales by Week 3
4 Demand Sales by Day 4
5 Demand - Seasonality Sales also differ dramatically by day of week (DOW)! Sales differ dramatically by quarter and month within quarter! 5
6 Demand Forecast Past Now Future Identifying patterns in the past help us to forecast the future. 6
7 Agenda Time Series Components Cumulative Forecasts Naïve Forecasts Moving Average Forecasts 7
8 Time Series Components 8
9 Time Series Components Level (a) Value where demand hovers around (mean) Captures scale of the time series With no other pattern present its a constant value Demand rate a time Trend (b) Rate of growth or decline Persistent movement in one direction Typically linear but can be exponential, quadratic, etc. Demand rate b Seasonal Variations (F) time Repeated cycle around a known and fixed period Hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc. Can be caused by natural or man-made forces Random Fluctuations (e or ε) Demand rate F Remainder of variability after other components Irregular and unpredictable variations, noise time 9
10 Time Series Components Cyclical Movements (C) Periodic movement not of a fixed period Duration can be of different lengths Most often tied to longer term business cycles or economic conditions Institute of Supply Management (ISM) Purchasing Manager Index ( PMI) Oct-06 Apr-07 Oct-07 Apr-08 Oct-08 Apr-09 Oct-09 Apr-10 Oct-10 Contracting Expansion Data source: Federal Reserve of St. Louis. 10
11 Time Series Models Components can be combined in different ways: Multiplicative: x t = bf t C t e t Additive: x t = a + bt + F t + C t + e t Note we can transform the multiplicative x t = bf t C t e t to: ln(x t )=ln(b)+ln(f t )+ln(c t )+ln(e t ) Mixed: x t = (a + bt)f t + C t + e t x t = a + btf t + C t + e t x t = af t + bt + C t + e t Model depends on how seasonality impacts trend and/or level? We will focus on four models Level Model: x t = a + e t Trend Model: x t = a + bt + e t Mix Level-Seasonality Model: x t = af t + e t Mix Level-Trend-Seasonality Model: x t = (a + bt)f t + e t Notation: x t = Actual demand in period t t = time period (0, 1, 2, n) a = Level component b = linear trend F t = Seasonal index appropriate for period tc t = Cyclical index for period t e t = Error independent random variable (μ=0) and constant σ 2 11
12 Cumulative vs. Naïve Forecasts 12
13 Time Series Models Predominant use of Time Series is for forecasting product demand of... Mature products at the SKU level over a... Short time horizon (weeks, months, quarters, year)... Where demand of items is independent. So, components used are level, trend, seasonality, and error. Simple Procedure 1. Select an appropriate underlying model of the demand pattern over time 2. Estimate and calibrate values for the model parameters 3. Forecast future demand with the models and parameters selected 4. Review model performance and adjust parameters and model accordingly 13
14 Time Series Analysis Critical assumption: How important is the history? Two extreme assumptions: Very Important or Not at All Cumulative Forecast All history matters equally Pure stationary demand Underlying Model: Naïve Forecast Most recent dictates next Random Walk, Last is Next Underlying Model: where: x t = a + e t e t ~ iid (μ=0, σ 2 =V[e]) Forecasting Model: ˆx t,t1 t x i1 i t where: x t = x t-1 + e t e t ~ iid (μ=0, σ 2 =V[e]) Forecasting Model: ˆx t,t1 x t ˆx t,t = Forecast made at end of period t for demand in period t+, for =1,2,3... x t = Actual demand for period t 14
15 Cumulative vs. Naïve Forecasts Suppose we are at time=10 and want to find forecast for time=11; x^10,11 t x t t x t x^t,t Cumul Naïve x^t,t ˆx 10,11 Lets look at next period forecasts for cumulative and naïve models... Cumulative Forecast: 10 i1 x i Naïve Forecast: ˆx 10,11 x Note: Cumulative model is calm while the Naïve model is nervous. Naïve model is more responsive than the cumulative model. 15
16 Moving Average Forecast 16
17 Time Series Models Moving Average Only include the last M observations Compromise between cumulative and naïve ˆx t,t Underlying Model: x t = a + e t where: e t ~ iid (μ=0, σ 2 =V[e]) Forecasting Model: ˆx t,t1 t it1m M x i t x t Naïve M2 M4 M6 Cum Actual Naïve M2 M4 M6 17
18 Moving Average Models Moving Average Model is a general model Cumulative model (M=t) ˆx t,t1 t it1m M x i Naïve model (M=1) How big should M be? Too small? Overly responsive to noise, very nervous Too big? Averages out noise, misses step changes in demand Often use practical values of M (4, 6, 12, etc.) Note that Moving Average models always lag! Assumes stationary demand The larger the M, the longer the lag 18
19 Key Points from Lesson 19
20 Key Points from Lessons Time Series Analysis Pattern matching of data that is distributed over time Five Components (focus on first four) Level (a) Trend (b) Demand rate Demand rate a time Seasonality (F) time Error (e) Cyclical (C) Decompose the Demand using Models Demand rate b time Level Model: x t = a + e t Trend Model: x t = a + bt + e t Seasonality Model: x t = (a + bt)f t + e t Demand rate F time 20
21 Key Points from Lessons Three Models Cumulative everything matters Naïve only yesterday matters Moving Average select how much matters Differences Level of volatility Naïve (nervous) to Cumulative (calm) with MA in middle Required amount of data to store Naïve & Cumulative (1 per SKU) Moving Average (M items for each SKU) Similarities Assume level demand no trends or steps or seasonality All of these models lag to some degree Equal weighting of observations regardless of time ˆx t,t1 ˆx t,t1 t t i1 x i t ˆx t,t1 x t it1m M x i 21
