Zusammenfassung:	Computer systems and computer-implemented methods forecast demand for road repair equipment and implement actions based on the forecasted demand. The computer systems may include a processor configured to collect road condition data for a road in one or more locations, collect econometric data related to one or more entities responsible for maintenance of the road in the one or more locations, and collect data related to historical responsiveness of the one or more entities in taking actions related to the maintenance of the road. The processor may identify one or more potential customers and a potential demand for certain types and respective quantities of the road repair equipment from the road condition data, the econometric data and the historical responsiveness data, and implement one or more of manufacturing decisions, inventory management decisions, dealer actions, and direct customer interactions based on the potential demand.
