🛠️ Implementation Components

1. Revenue Forecasting Engine

# Strategic revenue forecasting with external factors
from strategic_forecasting import RevenueForecastEngine

engine = RevenueForecastEngine()
forecast = engine.generate_strategic_forecast(
    time_horizon='24_months',
    include_market_factors=True,
    scenario_analysis=True,
    confidence_intervals=True
)

2. Strategic Scenario Planning

# Multi-scenario strategic planning
from strategic_forecasting import ScenarioPlanner

planner = ScenarioPlanner()
scenarios = planner.generate_strategic_scenarios(
    base_assumptions=current_market_conditions,
    risk_factors=['economic_downturn', 'supply_chain', 'competition'],
    opportunity_factors=['market_expansion', 'product_innovation'],
    planning_horizon='36_months'
)

3. Executive Dashboard Generator

# Automated executive dashboard with strategic insights
from strategic_forecasting import ExecutiveDashboard

dashboard = ExecutiveDashboard()
strategic_report = dashboard.generate_executive_summary(
    data_sources=['financial', 'market', 'competitive'],
    insight_level='strategic',
    audience='board_of_directors'
)
