For this, a survey was carried on the mid/higher level employees of organizations with a close ended questionnaire including questions related to the variables. To analyze the survey data a statistical software (SPSS) was used to run reliability tests, multiple regression, and find out the correlations between the independent variables. 8 hypothesis were developed for individual independent variables and were accepted or rejected based on their beta standardized coefficient score.
In conclusion it was seen that, four hypothesis were accepted. The independent variables “cost saving”, “increased revenue”, “speedy data management”, “future demand” were the only contributing factors that drove success in the retail sector for using big data analytics. | en_US |
