Spare-parts demand forecasting

See the spike coming — before it becomes a stockout.

NextDemand forecasts the intermittent, lumpy demand of spare parts that Excel and your ERP's min/max get wrong — so you stop freezing cash in dead stock, and stop losing the sale when the part is finally needed.

The problem

Spare-parts demand isn't a smooth line. Your tools assume it is.

Long quiet stretches, then a sudden spike. Classic min/max and moving averages over-stock the slow movers and still miss the surge — so cash sits frozen on the shelf while the one part you need is out.

What you get

Forecasting that actually understands slow movers

01

Demand-pattern classification

Every item is automatically sorted by how it really behaves — steady, erratic, or slow & sporadic — so each gets the treatment it needs.

02

The right method for each item

Each item is matched to the approach that fits it — proven statistical techniques for slow, sporadic movers and machine learning where there's real signal. Established science, not a black box: the field's classics go back to the 1970s (e.g. Croston's method, 1972).

03

Reorder, safety stock & stockout dates

A clear recommended order quantity, when to place it, and the projected stockout date — item by item.

04

Data Insights

A health score, data-freshness view, supplier concentration, and a ranked list of what to fix first.

05

Accuracy you can check

Every forecast comes with an accuracy score, so you can trust it — or challenge it.

06

Your data, your way

Connect your ERP — Priority, SAP Business One, NetSuite, Dynamics — or upload a CSV. Bilingual English/Hebrew, RTL-native.

Why NextDemand

Specialist-grade forecasting, without the enterprise price tag

Enterprise specialists

Syncron, PTC Servigistics and the like model spare parts well — but they cost six figures and take 6–24 months to roll out.

Spreadsheets & ERP min/max

Free and familiar — but it's the wrong math for lumpy demand, so it quietly over- and under-stocks every month.

NextDemand
