Hi, I’m Divyanshu Rai — a Demand Planner & Supply Chain Analyst with a strong interest in how data, forecasting, and operational decisions shape real-world supply chains.

I created this blog to simplify complex supply chain and data concepts and explain them in a practical, easy-to-understand way for students, analysts, and professionals.

Why This Blog Exists

During my learning and professional journey, I noticed that many supply chain topics like forecast accuracy, inventory optimization, the bullwhip effect, and Excel-based analysis are often explained in a very theoretical or confusing manner.

This blog focuses on:

  • Real-world supply chain problems
  • Practical Excel-based examples
  • Clear explanations without unnecessary jargon
  • Concepts that are actually used by analysts and planners

Whenever possible, I include hands-on Excel models, tables, and dashboards to show how these concepts work in practice.

My Background

I work in the field of data analysis and supply chain planning, where I deal with:

  • Demand forecasting
  • Inventory and KPI analysis
  • Excel-based reporting and models
  • Process improvement using data

The insights shared on this blog are based on practical exposure, learning-by-doing, and real analytical workflows, not just textbook definitions.

What You’ll Find on This Blog

This blog mainly covers:

  • Excel for Supply Chain (formulas, models, simulations)
  • Inventory Management & Optimization

Each article is written to provide genuine informational value and help readers understand why something happens and how to analyze it.

Transparency & Content Quality

The goal is always to ensure accuracy, clarity, and usefulness for readers.
