The transformation: XO Communications had already taken the first steps in
identifying customer retention risks through analytics; now it wanted to seize the
opportunity to put these insights into action more effectively. By using IBM

SPSS

solutions to hone its predictive models, the company built a richer, more
up-to-date picture of its client base and began delivering this data to a greater
range of employees.
We are only just starting to realize the true potential that IBM analytics holds
across the business.
