In today's competitive consumer retail landscape, effective strategy—especially around pricing—requires a powerful combination of deep data analysis and sharp business intuition. Traditional approaches often struggle to deliver both at the speed the market demands.

Operand offers a new approach. We are an AI-enabled consulting firm focused on helping consumer retail businesses unlock significant performance improvements, starting with pricing and commercial strategy.

1. Proprietary LLM-Based Engine: Our AI agent runs hundreds of parallel simulations, probing different price points, discount ladders, and product-mix permutations, to reveal structural EBITDA opportunities that traditional analysis can't surface.
2. Experts-in-the-Loop: Our technology empowers our team of ex-MBB consultants to stress-test every key assumption, sharpen each recommendation, and partner with your team to turn our insights into powerful and actionable strategy.

Compared to traditional consulting engagements, Operand delivers:

• Deeper Insights: We move beyond readily visible improvements to identify fundamental opportunities.
• Stronger Outcomes: Typically delivering 5pt+ EBITDA uplift, significantly higher than the 2-3pt average from traditional methods.
• Faster Timelines: Our streamlined, tech-enabled process delivers actionable strategies in 2-3 months, versus the typical 4-6 months.

We operate as a managed service provider, designed to turn insights into actionable strategy efficiently, respecting your team's time while ensuring collaborative validation and buy-in.
