UJAS^® Retail Analytics Business Intelligence solution data model allows dynamic grouping of products to optimize cross-selling and revenue opportunities. "Succeeding in the retail business means being good on a number of dimensions -- service, pricing, marketing, and location selection (in the case of bricks & mortar stores), But assortment in retailing is number one," says former managing director of Aldi, Dieter Brandes, and Nils Brandes in "The Importance Of Managing Your Assortment!" (Harvard Business Review Forum, The Future of Retail).
