"Companies are constantly trying to be more competitive, to be more profitable, to be more successful. As a result, we see them using data to automate inventory optimization, to activate predictive analytics. There is a lot of talk about AI and machine learning. There's an expectation that it's going to help fuel business. But of course, as we've talked about you have to start with the right data to utilize these tools."
