Retail customers leverage machine learning to maximize margin with optimized pricing
With DataRobot, the Daugherty data scientists are able to focus on feature development and model analysis, while testing large number of models quickly. The time for model acceptance to production is drastically reduced with the push of a button deployment functionality and automatically created API endpoint for production scoring.
Regardless of where you are on the journey to leverage data and machine learning to drive business outcome, Daugherty provides talents in data science, data engineering, software engineering and business consulting to meet where you are and help you develop end-to-end machine learning solutions with DataRobot.
To help you embed AI through your organization, Daugherty helps to train your team on operating and developing AI and prepare your organization to be AI-driven.
The solution considers various types of source data, including fuel supply volume, market demand, competition pricing and response. With exogenous data such as fuel station distance to nearest highway exit, distance to the nearest competition, weather, relative pricing to nearby stations, and others to build machine learning models and maximize margin to determine the optimal pricing, the solution uses the following steps:
Business rules are implemented as additional guardrails to constrain the minimal price and maximal price gap above competitors. The prices can be optimized for each individual station on a desired schedule.
We can take one step further to analyze and model the customer behavior using other services in the fuel station, such as purchase in convenience stores, restaurants and truck services. Machine learning models are able to predict sales, next purchase, common combined purchases, and generate insights to what factors impact the customer behavior, to help further improve the revenue of each station.
A similar approach can be applied to all retail pricing optimization use cases across different industries.
We’re excited to provide you with these key deliverables and ensure your experience with us is nothing short of exceptional. Your success is our priority, and we’re here to make it happen!
