• The payoff from joining the big-data and advanced-analytics management
revolution is no longer in doubt. The tally of successful case studies
continues to build, reinforcing broader research suggesting that when
companies inject data and analytics deep into their operations, they can
deliver productivity and profit gains that are 5 to 6 percent higher than
those of the competition.
