Rent-A-Center is a leading retail company based in North America. The company operates a network of 3,000 stores across the region. The company's business intelligence department was tasked with creating maps for these stores, a process that was previously manual and time-consuming. The company was looking for a solution that could automate this process and make it more efficient.
The Challenge
Rent-A-Center, a leading retail company in North America, was facing challenges in creating maps for their 3,000 stores. The process was manual, involving a lot of clicking, joining, queries, and sub-queries. This was time-consuming and inefficient, taking up to 12-1/2 weeks to complete. The company needed a solution that could streamline this process and make it more efficient.
The Solution

Alteryx allowed the company to see the flow of data during the process and make immediate adjustments without having to wait for the output. This significantly streamlined the map creation process, reducing the time taken from 12-1/2 weeks to just under three hours using a batch process. The company is also considering using Alteryx's demographic output to help their merchandising department determine how to customize the merchandise mix in stores.
