A FUTURE GUIDED BY DATA ANALYTICS
Dan Stewart, Vice President of Marketing & eCommerce; Allied Electronics & Automation
“I wish I had a crystal ball to look into the future. Any time when things are going well you have cautious optimism. You’re optimistic about the future, but you’re always cautious because you never know when it’s going to turn, because, eventually, it’s going to turn. What we do know is that the role of data in our decision making is only going to become more critical. Some 90% of our customers engage with us digitally and when they place an order with us there is a rich set of information on what they want and need. We’re leveraging that information to make decisions, develop our strategies and engage with suppliers.”
