A&P Uses New Portal to Share Big Data
A&P is working with 1010data, Inc. to share its data and better collaborate with its hundreds of supplier partners (vendors) through the new 1010data Retail Vendor Portal.
This cloud-based portal enables retailers to share their proprietary data – including point of sale (POS), inventory, loyalty and more – with their supplier partners. It allows a retailer's vendors to work with and analyze the same data the retailer does in order to collaborate on mutual business goals.
For A&P, the portal replaces a legacy solution and provides new analyses such as shopping basket affinities and promotion insights that allow A&P and its vendors to understand how customers’ wants and needs change over time. These insights will help ensure A&P is stocked with the right products in the right stores at the right time for its customers.
"We are always looking for ways to share data and foster a consultative partnership with our vendors in order to collaborate on new programs and merchandising strategies,” said Richard Angelillo, A&P Head of IT Strategy & Delivery. “By leveraging the 1010data Retail Vendor Portal we can now store, share and allow our vendors to analyze data using a common platform — ultimately allowing us to better serve our customers."
