Retail World (RW) is a major international retail chain, selling groceries, clothing, electronic items, toiletries and homeware items. It has grown rapidly across a number of different countries, offering a broad product range to suit a wide range of customer segments. Growth has been through the expansion of existing stores, the opening of new stores and on-line sales. The new finance director, whose background is in a non-retail environment, is keen to understand the sales trends of the organization, as well as the industry, in order to help develop a strategy which can take advantage of these trends in the future. A business analyst has provided summarised internal sales data for this purpose detailing the last three years of trading and detail the growth in the number of stores and average quarterly sales.The company’s IT systems are fully integrated and associated controls are rigorous, allowing the data to be manipulated in many ways.

The average number of stores expected to be in operation in 2019 is 3,700 rising to 4,000 in 2020. The finance director was interested to receive the analysis; however, he also stated that it was not quite as useful as he would have hoped for, commenting, ‘I have been hearing a lot about big data at industry meetings I have attended. I think we should investigate the ways in which we could use this, and the benefits we might hope to obtain from it.’Required:Prepare a briefing note for the Finance Director which outlines ‘big data’ and how it could be used to enhance strategic development within RW
