Even with reliable forecasting capability and technologically-advanced means of determining future trends, it is still highly possible to commit erratic decisions when it comes to the manufacture of products. When a business performs errors in creating a match between the supply and the demand, it will only be one of these two – the demand will go beyond the supply or the supply will go beyond the demand. Either of these two, the business is up to experience losses. Yet, there are certain measures that the business can perform to avoid total loss and maybe even turn this opportunity to earn.

When the demand is higher than what the business can produce or provide then the company may be able to restrict the demand by increasing the selling price and declaring longer lead time schedules. But in the long run, the business should be able to find ways of increasing supply or else it will eventually turn out to be a loss for it. There are many ways that this can be done and one of which is to create an inventory of goods such that the business can have a stock of products whenever they are needed.

When the supply is greater than the demand of consumers, the business can increase its effort in marketing the goods and stimulate interest among consumers. Another way is to provide a significantly marked-down price of the goods so that a wider band of the market segment can be able to afford the goods offered.
