Competing In A Data-Driven World

Every company is a data company. 
 
What that means for CEOs, boards and senior management is pretty clear, according to The Age of Analytics: Competing in a Data-driven World , a new report from McKinsey & Company:
 
"Big data’s potential just keeps growing. Taking full advantage means companies must incorporate analytics into their strategic vision and use it to make better, faster decisions. "
Why that's so beneficial is pretty clear, too:
   
"...analytical techniques can fuel discovery and innovation. Above all, businesses no longer have to go on gut instinct; they can use data and analytics to make faster decisions and more accurate forecasts supported by a mountain of evidence."

Is There A First-Mover Advantage In Big Data, Analytics and Benchmarking?

Nobody likes to be the first to try something new.  Remember the old Life Cereal commercial ?
 
Brother #1: "I'm not gonna try it, you try it."
Brother #2: "No way. I'm not gonna try it, you try it."
Brother #1: "I know, let's get Mikey to try it!"
 
Big Data, analytics and benchmarking aren't new, but for a lot of companies, the idea of incorporating them into existing processes and procedures on a day-to-day basis is.
 
That means the question they struggle with isn't why they should do more with the data they already collect, but when they should start  —  should they be one of the first or wait to see what happens to their peers and competitors?
 
(For insights into the "how" of becoming more data-driven, see 10 Simple Rules For Your Big Data Analytics Adoption Strategy.)
 
Fotunately, there's a growing body of research that suggests the sooner you start, the better off you'll be because the gains in profitability and productivity from Big Data, analytics and benchmarking increase over time.
 
Three stats to consider:
 
  1. The average initial increase in profits from big data investments is 6%, but the average increase in profits after five years is 9%(Source: McKinsey & Co.)
  2. The average initial return on  big data investments for the average company is 140%, but the average return on  big data investments for the average company after five years is 200%. (Source: McKinsey & Co.)
  3. Companies ranked "more productive" are faster adopters of big data than their "less-productive" peers. (Source: Journal of Big Data.)
Compelling?
 
Yes.
