Forecasting – A vital management asset

The demands of running a business on a day-to-day basis can sometimes leave little time for the demanding function of budgeting and forecasting. And yet forecasting can be a vital part of the success of any organization. It provides owners and managers with valuable targets and insights, such as (a) business plans to measure the company’s performance; (b) return on investment targets for investors and financial institutions; (c) a detailed performance roadmap for all management and staff; (d) yardsticks to manage corporate, divisional, managerial and employee performance; (e) targets for incentives and performance bonuses at all levels, and others.
