The use of scientific approaches to aid managerial decision making for problems that involve quantitative factors has grown by leaps and bounds over the years.
The use of scientific approaches to aid managerial decision making for problems that involve quantitative factors has grown by leaps and bounds over the years.
Prescriptive analytics focuses on determining the best course of action in a scenario, by gathering information from various sources and by applying them for the decision-making process. This includes combining existing conditions and considering the consequences of each decision to determine the future impact. It is related to both descriptive and predictive analytics, but emphasizes on actionable insights. Prescriptive analytics relies on optimization techniques for decision making.
