• Validate retail consumption (POS) forecasts into demand (shipments), accounting for distribution, promotion, and inventory dynamics within the demand planning tool (e.g., Vividly & Atomic). • Validate commercial inputs — including distribution changes, promotional lifts, and new item launches — into the forecasting workflow in close partnership with sales planning teams. • Review and challenge future forecast reasonableness based on historical POS performance, shipment history, and MAPE/bias trends to ensure forecasts reflect latest market realities. • Own forecast accuracy reporting — publish monthly MAPE and bias reports by SKU, retailer, and key customer x SKU combinations. • Deconstruct MAPE performance each reporting period to diagnose root causes and drive continuous improvement in forecast process and data quality in partnership with sales planning lead at both the national and node level. • Maintain the override log with written justification for all deviations from the statistical baseline (source, rationale, duration); partner with Sales Planning to validate overrides against consumption truth. • Escalate chronic MAPE/bias issues to relevant stakeholders and adjust forward forecasts to reflect learnings. • Key contributor to the Demand S&OP process — prepare reports, insights, and forecast summaries for cross-functional review. • Serve as the Forecast Analyst gate in the Demand Review approval workflow, alongside planning leads and Executive S&OP sign-off. • Document forecast drivers, changes, and exceptions in support of a transparent, auditable consensus demand plan. • Contribute to monthly forecast accuracy reviews, providing insights and recommended improvements. • Serve as the primary administrator and governance owner of the demand planning software (Vividly / Atomic) — the single source of truth for all forecasts. • Maintain and validate data flows between Vividly, NetSuite, Atomic, Syndicated data partners, Alloy, and warehouse/3PL systems; ensure master data consistency across items, customers, distribution, and promo tags. • Identify and resolve data quality issues that could degrade forecast integrity; document and communicate data limitations to stakeholders. • Update and maintain all BAT documentation on a weekly cadence, including but not limited to the Allocation Tracker and Bridge Projection. Ensure documentation remains accurate and accessible to stakeholders.
