Optimizing future operations based on data-driven forecasts

The presentation provides an overview of how data, forecasts and optimization are “stacked” on top of each other, building a framework where we can optimize future operations. On the highest level we have furthermore a customer feedback loop.

• Reports alone will not yield competitive advantage.
• Building layers and modules will provide better scalability, faster development, and easier maintainability.
• Each part needs feedback, but the overall customer feedback is the most important one.
