Generate forecasts by region, facility, department, role, and skill group; support the evolution of multi-channel forecasting (e.g., chat, email).

Forecast Refinement and Reporting: Monitor forecast accuracy, analyze variance results, and refine modeling methodologies to improve precision. Archive and flag significant days (e.g., system outages, weather events, holidays) for future forecasting reference. Develop and maintain leading indicators that correlate long- and short-term forecasts to support proactive staffing adjustments
Collaboration and Communication: Collaborate actively with operations leadership and stakeholders to validate forecast inputs, communicate projected outcomes, and ensure transparency in workforce planning.
