ABOUT THE COURSE

Business analytics refers to the methods through which organizations, such as businesses, non-profits, and governments, can use data to acquire insights and improve decision-making. Operations, marketing, finance, and strategic planning are just a few of the areas where business analytics is used. The ability to use data effectively to drive rapid, precise and profitable decisions has been a critical strategic advantage for companies as diverse as Dell, Walmart, Google, Nike, Capital One, and Disney.

For example, Walmart uses analytics to monitor and update its inventory in a way that allows it to serve its customers at an exceptionally low cost; Dell applied analytics to segment and better manage its supply chain; and Ford and Schneider Electric use data and analytics to significantly improve the resiliency of their supply chain and better respond to a disruption anywhere in their network.
