During the 1980’s Expert 163 was a forecasting consultant for Gwilym Jenkins and Partners (GJP). GJP is a firm based in Lancaster, England, specializing in ARIMA time series analysis and software. A sabbatical from the University of Oklahoma in 1980 was spent visiting the corporate headquarters of a large number of Fortune 500 companies interested in the use of ARIMA processes for their forecasting needs. These visits were used to explain the techniques, the software and to discuss the appropriateness of the techniques for forecasting problems of the firm. The problems considered required consideration of the complete picture of the corporate structure and the interdependencies of its various components. The following is a partial list of corporations and government entities consulted: White Consolidated Industries, Nestle Company, National Bureau of Standards, Baxter Travenol Laboratories, Walgreens, Quaker Oats, ESMARK, Standard Brands, House of Seagram’s, SWISSRE Holding, New York and New Jersey Port Authority, Paine Weber Blythe and Eastman, American Cynamid, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Federal Energy Administration, Harris Trust, Northern Trust, United Nations, Irving Trust, Consolidated Coal, Standard Oil of Ohio, Ross Laboratory, PPG, Gulf Oil, Phillips Petroleum, Rockwell International, Shell Oil and The U.
