Long Term Demand Forecasting
We worked with Boral to build an optimisation engine to assist in the quantitative and justified decision making required to forecast demand around facility sizing for capital investment decisions

“Biarri provided us the with the rigorous quantitative modelling that we required to make major capital and operating decisions. Their easy to use model framework helped us to understand analyse the complexity associated with varying demand on our facilities’ supplies and catchment areas. The Biarri team made the mathematics easy and the results understandable.”

As one of Australia’s largest and most experienced Construction Materials suppliers, Boral operates five quarries near Melbourne that supply aggregates, dust, and road base to locations around Melbourne.
Boral wanted to accurately forecast their increased demand and build a business case for upgrades to facilities. They required an appropriate modelling approach to understand how forecasted demand changes would impact inventories and its catchment areas. They also required a solution that was easy to access, quick and easy to use and able to analyse multiple scenarios.
