Intermittent demand
Irregular, sporadic demand with many zero-sales periods -- common for wholesale, spare parts, and slow movers.
Intermittent (or lumpy) demand is sales that arrive in unpredictable bursts with long quiet stretches in between. Standard forecasting methods, tuned for steady daily sales, handle it badly -- they either over-stock the quiet periods or miss the bursts.
Skuwell's forecasting is built to recognize intermittent patterns and size buffers appropriately, which is why it suits wholesale and B2B operations where a single account can order a quarter's worth in one PO.
