Analytics Session

Resilience & Analytics, what we can learn from the pandemic

As the COVID-19 crisis unfolded, organizations had to adapt to quickly changing market conditions and mobilize their data and analytics resources to make informed decisions. In many ways, this crisis has proven to be an accelerator of digital transformation. 

There has been a growing realization of how much we rely on data and analytics to adapt and survive and the importance of agile, effective analytics processes. Steps have been taken in the heat of the crisis that will have long-lasting positive impacts on our ability to weather any storms. 

More than ever, we need efficient, automated analytics processes, open cloud-based architectures, data literacy, and a culture of self-sufficiency, cross-functional collaboration and innovation.

Customer Experience Session

The Power of Digital to Bridge the Physical Distancing Gap

In these unprecedented times, customer behavior has changed; restrictions on off-line points-of-sale and ongoing stay at home orders have resulted in limited traffic in purchases, thus driving the demand to online channels. As a result, our customer profiles are also changing, models that previously predicted and forecasted consumer behavior are no longer accurate.
As the customer is the center of your universe, the decisions you make around each one at every stage of their journey with you dictate the quality of their experience with your brand. At SAS, we have helped thousands of organizations such as yours succeed, by helping them make the best decisions at every stage of every customer relationship. We provide this through a comprehensive, unified, organically developed customer engagement and decisioning platform which lets you manage all aspects of the customer engagement.

Using Analytics and AI to help Government to support outbreaks and disasters

With the increase in public spending brought about by situations such as COVID-19 and natural disasters, Governments around the world have to dig deep and run budgets into red to cover these costs.

Retail Session

How the retail industry can embrace the new reality in demand, supply and customer experience domains 

 We are in unprecedented times. Supply and demand across the industry has changed beyond recognition as we, as a nation, act to respond to the coronavirus. Retailers need to manage and optimize their supply chains to cope with the current crisis. Forecasting demand and ensuring the supply of essential and non-essential goods - in-store and online – as we enter different phases of the outbreak, with no blueprint to fall back on, is a huge test for retailers of all shapes and sizes.
