Project roadmap
We support the business with a mix of advanced analytics and data science initiatives – all projects are aligned upfront with Petco leadership and should deliver measurable business value.
Examples of projects that you can expect to lead / contribute to:
Executing on our replenishment strategy, including differentiated service levels, accurate lead time variability / forecast error and optimized presentation stock.
Understanding current processes for exiting product and building a rules-based decision tool to drive sell-through of clearance / expiring / excess inventory.
Modelling complex business and system relationships to evaluate the primary drivers of stockouts, providing clear (remediation) direction to business teams.
For our “collect” orders (where we pay the transportation cost), analyze cost history to evaluate if vendors are sufficiently discounting unit cost to achieve our target margin.
Evaluating store demand, proximity to DC / other stores, DC labor capacity etc. to determine a store’s optimal replenishment frequency and truck routes.
Modelling a “substitutability” score for each product and surfacing the primary alternatives for customers (based on strength of substitute relationships).
