Retailers and consumer brands face common challenges with forecasting, planning, and pricing:
How can we get all of our planning and operational teams to collaborate more effectively to make better decisions?
How do we align pricing, sourcing, replenishment, and allocation decisions with inventory or supply chain constraints?
What strategies and tools can we implement to better predict and respond to sudden changes in consumer behavior or market conditions?
How can we drive better business outcomes without an analytics skill base?
How do we incorporate a new solution into our complex operating model to ensure adoption and sustainment?
How can we effectively plan for demand across different sales channels (in-store, online, mobile, wholesale) while accounting for their unique characteristics?
What’s the best approach to forecast demand for new products when we have no historical sales data?
How can we ensure our data is properly prepared for better demand planning outcomes?
