The Challenge
A top global grocery retailer was struggling to accurately forecast sales, preventing them from setting realistic targets and fairly assessing team performance. Data was scattered across brands, channels, and countries, making it difficult to compare top-down vs bottom-up forecasts or track accuracy over time.

- No standardised forecasting framework
- Inconsistent targets across teams and markets
- Limited visibility into forecast accuracy
- Difficulty aligning business planning with actual performance

- Delivered trackers and dashboards for teams to monitor forecasts and compare top-down vs bottom-up results in real time
- Embedded into workflows to ensure adoption and consistent performance tracking
