Forecasts your planners actually use.
Demand, throughput, energy and capacity forecasts at SKU, line and plant level — connected to S&OP, MRP and the schedule, not stuck in a notebook.

Excel forecasts age fast. Planners need probabilities, not point guesses.
Markets, shifts and supply move weekly. Static forecasts can't keep up — and a single number lies about uncertainty. RockQ produces probabilistic forecasts and refreshes them whenever new actuals arrive.
Capabilities included.
Demand forecasting, throughput forecasting and energy forecasting — at SKU / line / plant level, with confidence intervals.
Demand Forecast
Demand forecasts at SKU and plant level — wired straight into S&OP and capacity planning.
Energy Management
Monitor energy consumption per machine. Identify waste and optimize usage to reduce costs.
Throughput Forecast
Forecast line and shift throughput against orders. Catch capacity gaps before planning meetings catch you.
Three horizons, one platform.
Forecasts that drive shift schedules, S&OP plans and capital decisions are different problems. RockQ runs all three on the same data — so they actually agree.
Operational
Daily and weekly throughput, energy and crew load — refreshed when the line refreshes.
What it drives
- Shift staffing
- Material pull
- Daily energy budget
Tactical
S&OP-grade demand, throughput and capacity forecasts at SKU and plant level.
What it drives
- S&OP cycle
- MRP horizon
- Inventory targets
Strategic
Long-range demand and capacity scenarios for capital and footprint decisions.
What it drives
- Capacity planning
- Capex cases
- Plant footprint
From history to plan.
