Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Operational decisions, such as inventory planning and inbound/outbound transportation, are focused on short-term demand planning decisions. These decisions are made to ensure that day-to-day operations run smoothly and that inventory levels are in line with current demand. Long-term demand planning decisions are focused on more strategic decisions, such as market research and product development, while intermediate-term demand planning decisions are focused on forecasting and production planning. Prolonged demand planning decisions are not a recognized category of decision-making.
