OE = Original Equipment?

My comment:

It's just an idea, I thought of "OEM", Original Equipment Manufacturer, might this idea fit with your context?

"- forecast"

My comment:

I think you will find that the oe diphthong is just a misinterpetation of one character set by another for a hyphen. Thus, for example:
"P - Preliminary
E - Estimation
F - Forecast"
sometimes prints the "-" as an "oe".
etc.

Original Equipment

My comment:

J'ai déjà vu ce terme utilisé pour les équipementiers. Le contexte reste à confirmer.
OE= Équipement d'origine
OEM= Équipementiers

I just realized someone else is asking the same question. Is this a test of some sort? I would advise, for the sake of our profession, that unqualified people do not even try to take on translations beyond their abilities. Thanks.
