AI-Driven Demand Forecasting System for Sustainable Apparel Production

In the fast-evolving textiles and apparel industry, accurately predicting consumer demand is critical for maintaining a competitive advantage and ensuring sustainable production practices. Our scale-up company is focused on integrating state-of-the-art AI and machine learning technologies to develop a demand forecasting system that effectively aligns production with market demand. The project involves using advanced predictive analytics and computer vision to analyze historical sales data, social media trends, seasonal changes, and consumer behavior patterns. Technologies such as OpenAI API, TensorFlow, and PyTorch will be utilized to build robust models capable of delivering precise demand forecasts. By incorporating Natural Language Processing (NLP), our solution will also analyze fashion blogs and customer reviews to gauge emerging trends. A key feature of the project is its use of AutoML and Edge AI to continuously improve model accuracy and deploy predictive capabilities directly to manufacturing sites, ensuring timely adjustments to production schedules. The successful implementation of this AI-driven system will minimize overproduction, reduce inventory holding costs, and support our sustainability goals by preventing excess waste. With a budget of $15,000-$50,000, and a timeline of 8-12 weeks, we are seeking experts with experience in AI and textile industry applications to lead this critical project.
