Discussion: Mobile BI at Nordstrom

For the last several years Nordstrom has invested a great deal in technology to meet the existing and new demands of its consumers both in-store and online. The addition of mobile point of sale devices to their Full Line and Rack stores, a shopping application for the iPhone and Android as well as free shipping are but a few of the projects that add value to our customers but also new information for the company. The new information combined with existing creates more information that can be effectively consumed, even with people being more plugged in than ever before with their smart phones and tablets. Nordstrom is making an effort to focus its leaders on what is important and actionable with information relevant to their area of the business.
