📋 Store 19 – Forecasting Accuracy Summary

Model MAE ($) MAPE (%) RMSE ($)
Excel 3,235 38.38% 3,657
Machine Learning 1,155 13.38% 1,398

For Store 19, machine learning cut forecast error by over 60% — delivering more reliable insights and reducing risk from costly surprises.

We evaluate forecast performance using three key metrics:

  • MAE (Mean Absolute Error): This tells us how far off the forecast was each day, on average — in dollars. Lower is better.
  • MAPE (Mean Absolute % Error): A percentage-based measure that shows how inaccurate the forecast was, relative to actual sales.
  • RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error): This emphasizes the big forecasting mistakes. It’s more sensitive to major sales swings — and a strong indicator of risk.

Traditional Excel-style forecasts tend to miss large spikes and drops, especially during volatility. Our machine learning model adapts to changing trends, promotions, and seasonality — giving you forecasts you can actually rely on.

Bottom line: lower forecast error means better planning, less waste, and fewer surprises.

💡 Why Accurate Forecasting Matters

  • 📉 Protect Cash Flow: Poor forecasts lead to wasted inventory, missed revenue, and bad staffing decisions.
  • 📅 Plan with Confidence: Reliable forecasts improve budgeting, purchasing, and sales alignment.
  • ⚠️ Spot Trouble Early: ML models detect downturns sooner — giving you time to act, not just react.
