الإجابة المختصرة

A report tells you what happened. A decision model tells you what to do next and how sure it is. Start with one decision, such as how much cash you will have in thirteen weeks, and build backwards from it.

Stages

From report to decision

1
Name the decision Write down the decision, who makes it and how often: reorder, collect, hire, discount.
2
Find the drivers List the data that moves it: open invoices, payment history, lead times, demand.
3
Build the forecast Start with a simple, explainable model on the governed data. Add sophistication only if it beats the simple one.
4
Put it in the workflow Show the forecast where the decision is made, with the reasons beside it.
5
Close the loop Compare forecast with result every period and retrain or retire the model.

Decision points

Three questions that change the answer

Is the decision made often enough to justify a model?

YesBuild it.

NoKeep a report and a conversation.

Can the user see why the model says this?

YesRelease it to users.

NoSimplify it until they can.

Does it beat the simple baseline?

YesKeep it.

NoUse the baseline.

Milestones

What done looks like, and when

Month 1 Decision and baseline measured.
Month 2 First forecast on governed data.
Month 3 Forecast embedded in the workflow.
Quarterly Forecast accuracy reviewed.

Principles we hold to

Begin with the decision, not the dashboard.
Explainable beats clever.
Always compare with a simple baseline.
Retire models that stop earning their place.
