Researchers have introduced Phorecaster365, a human-supervised reference architecture designed to improve pharmaceutical sales forecasting and planning. This architecture integrates enterprise resource planning data with sales forecasts, separating various stages of data processing, modeling, and review. It emphasizes preserving crucial contextual information, such as inventory levels and transaction semantics, within a forecast context package. The system also includes a forecast evidence package to track predictions, model versions, and human adjustments, with a design informed by synthetic data experiments and a proposed rolling-origin evaluation protocol.
