The central purpose of the Centre for Business Analytics is to contribute broadly and deeply to knowledge and practice in analytics. To aid this purpose the Centre for Business Analytics has partnered with AT Kearney to create the analytics Impact Index. Seed funding ranging from $5K-$20K is also provided to research projects across the University of Melbourne.
Topics of research include developing new text-mining techniques, new security analytics methods, understanding the shareholder value of investments in analytics, developing new customer lifetime value models and optimising supply chains.
The Analytic Impact Index is a globally recognised guide for organisational leaders to compare and improve their analytics capabilities.
As invest in analytics continues to grow, many wonder how their level of maturity compares to their peers, and what they can do to extract maximum value from that investment.
Melbourne Business School and A.T. Kearney have collaborated to produce the Analytics Impact Index in 2018 and 2019 – based on input from more than 350 companies across 46 countries and 27 industries – to pinpoint the bottom-line impact and structural elements required to set an organisation up for success.
