Challenge

Only a strategic, comprehensive approach to data and analytics can realize the full value of data

Today’s business is supported and driven by various types of analytics use cases. Daily and monthly sales reports on operational and tactical level are a must and only the first step of analysis. Producing and delivering these reports is considered commodity and thus needs to be done efficiently. Additionally, it is important to visualize this information in a manner that facilitates easy understanding.

Further, technology these days enables real-time analysis of data which is especially important for basket analysis and upselling scenarios. Modern analytics solutions have the capability to not only visualize data through dashboards but also generate explanations about the insights derived from the data. These insights can be used further to enhance planning processes.

As a result, companies are faced with the challenge of finding the right approach, acquiring the necessary skills, and adopting ways of working which avoid redundant data preparation and working in silos potentially leading to contradicting results.

The KPS SMART Retail Analytics Framework addresses the challenges with the clear objective of leveraging innovative capabilities to support business strategy with tangible results for your growth stories.
