Data Analytics Drive Retail Efficiency

The concept of data analytics has been around for years, but do companies know what those terabytes of data can do for their business? And if they do, are they using it to its maximum potential?

The concept of data analytics has been around for years, but do companies know what those terabytes of data can do for their business? And if they do, are they using it to its maximum potential?

eCommerce and retailers collect huge amounts of data from both online and offline traffic and transactions. Analysing these data right can help business uncover consumer patterns, preferences, correlations and more. And what does this truly mean for them? When done right, these can be easily achieved:

Demand forecasting and inventory planning to ensure preferred items are always in stock
Reducing storage wastage for low-demand, low-yield items
Addressing issues ahead of high volume seasons such as Singles Day, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and holiday seasons in general
Up-selling and cross-promotion through preference correlation insights
Personalised shopping experience for each unique customer done right
Capitalising on data is the key to engage your customers and foster loyalty.

Have you been using captured data to enable sound business decisions? Is the process an integrated solution, or merely business information in silos? What are the data analytics tools that can help you improve your retail and eCommerce business?

We will be covering this and more at LMFAsia 2018 Conference.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection

The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
