Brief: Drive Faster Retail Performance With SAP'S CAR

Application development and delivery (AD&D) professionals in retail face a barrage of urgent demands from line of business colleagues to equip them with actionable insight about inventory availability by location and about the propensity of individuals or segments to respond to new product introductions or offers.

They can't just scrap existing applications and start again.
