CPG Firms Too Slowly Becoming Analytics-Driven Organizations?

This research report by Accenture, “CPG Firms Slowly Evolving to Analytics-Driven Organizations,” explores how CPG companies are structuring analytics-driven organizations, and how they are “infusing” analytics into the decision-making processes.  While some of the largest CPG companies (revenue more than $5 billion) have analytics well integrated into core processes, this report concludes that most CPG companies are in the early stage of their analytics journey.  However, companies are committing resources to analytics, and this evolution is accelerating. The report also addresses the barriers that prevent CPG companies from realizing value from analytics, such as the challenges of hiring talent with advanced analytics expertise.  TAG: CPG.  See more . . .
