Analytics and Business Intelligence Platforms
Analytics and business intelligence platforms — enabled by IT and augmented by AI — empower users to model, analyze and share data. Analytics and business intelligence (ABI) platforms enable organizations to understand their data. For example, what are the dimensions of their data — such as product, customer, time, and geography? People need to be able to ask questions about their data (e.g., which customers are likely to churn? Which salespeople are not reaching their quotas?). They need to be able to create measures from their data, such as on-time delivery, accidents in the workplace and customer or employee satisfaction. Organizations need to blend modeled and nonmodeled data to create new data pipelines that can be explored to find anomalies and other insights. ABI platforms make all of this possible.

Retail Assortment Management Applications: Long Life Cycle Products
Retail assortment management applications (RAMAs) are a foundational component of modern category management solutions for long life cycle products. Using data & analytics and AI technology, RAMAs can curate targeted assortments to create compelling customer experiences, leading to an increase in sales conversion. Long life cycle products in retail include categories such as grocery, consumables and hard goods. The long life cycle retailers’ traditionally broad approach to assortments is not satisfying customers’ demands for more curated assortments to match their lifestyles. Local trends mean that even more granular store-specific assortments are necessary. Advanced analytics, algorithms, AI and automation will play pivotal roles in driving this transformation through better customer understanding and alignment.

Retail Merchandise Financial Planning
Merchandise financial planning (MFP) is acknowledged as the primary tool of strategic preseason and in-season planning, critical within short life cycle retail merchandising. Key capabilities include forecast-driven financial planning via top-down and bottom-up automated planning to enable scenario planning and version control. This has enabled merchandisers to enhance their roles and drive increased roadmap, margin and inventory flow, as well as the opportunity to deliver customer-centric assortments. Our vendor interactions when researching MFP solutions surfaced numerous use cases demonstrating how MFP implementations have directly improved KPIs. One example is a large apparel brand that successfully reduced inventory levels by 30% after MFP enabled it to gain a better understanding of store-specific customer demand size and facilitated assortments. The application and frequency of usage of MFP is dependent on the type of products the retailer sells.

Supply Chain Planning Solutions
Gartner defines supply chain planning (SCP) solutions as platforms that provide technological support to enable a company to manage, link, align, collaborate and share its planning data across an extended supply chain. An SCP solution supports planning, ranging from demand planning through detailed supply-side response planning and from strategic planning through execution-level planning. It is the planning decision repository for a defined end-to-end supply chain. It is also the environment in which end-to-end-integrated supply chain decisions are managed. It establishes a single version of the truth for planning data and decisions, regardless of the underlying execution technology environment. Organizations use SCP solutions to improve their supply chain planning decisions and reach higher levels of maturity.
