The New Science of Retailing



The New Science of Retailing: How Analytics are Transforming the Supply Chain and Improving Performance


Description*


In a groundbreaking book, THE NEW SCIENCE OF RETAILING: How Analytics Are Transforming the Supply Chain and Improving Performance, authors Marshall Fisher and Ananth Raman, argue that the time is ripe for “rocket science retailing.” Just as Wall Street was transformed in the 1970’s by the influx of physicists, engineers, and “rocket scientists” with mathematical techniques that allowed the harnessing of vast, complicated transaction data, so too retailing is now ready, and in fact beginning a “rocket science revolution.”

The authors draw on examples from a diverse group of international companies to show how smart retailers are using analytics to transform their supply chain. How they are bringing costs down while driving revenues higher—in effect turning their supply chain into a brand enhancer, a speed enabler, and a true competitive advantage.
