  • Abstract
    Currently, there are many available software packages for forecasting in manufacturing firms. Some packages are fairly simple and easy to use but they do not cover the full range of forecasting methods. Some packages are more advanced with a large capacity for graphics and graphical interface designed especially for commercial environments. However, they cannot be used with personal computers (PCs). This research aims to fill the gap by designing user friendly software for implementing the most commonly used forecasting methods. The forecasting methods described have been programmed in one package using Lotus 1-2-3. The forecasting system is a menu driven software developed in the Lotus 1-2-3 environment
