In Nestle:
Nestlé's executive information system (EIS) department gathers data from
the firm's subsidiaries (reporting units) to provide top management with operational,
financial, and strategic information. the EIS department decided to improve its service
by using business analytics tools based on management science (MS) techniques. It
wanted to encourage analysts and controllers to make better use of the information
supplied. Nestle developed four modules: sensitivity analysis, forecasting, simulation,
and optimization, and integrated them into a more global modeling scheme for
evaluating the economic profitability of Nestlé's projects and more generally evaluating
the value of the Nestlé group and its multifocal businesses. Disseminating this approach
within the Nestlé group through training and internal consulting has been a long and
important process that has increased the number of managers accustomed to
quantitative decision making and established new reporting protocols imposing the use
of MS models.
For example:
During budgeting of the new fiscal year, the finance department clearly use the
quantitative tools to look which area needs improvement, or which area is lacking
behind. They clearly use the quantitative charts of the last year to ensure the accuracy
of the decisions which they going to take this year while allocating budget. For this there
are many software, which aid in developing models, and equations which are then used
by the managers to in decision making. Similarly, before introducing a new product for a
region, the operation management clearly use quantitative analysis, such as liking of
people, weather of the region, how to insure price for a product etc.
Contingency Approach:
The contingency approach is a management theory that suggests
the most appropriate style of management is dependent on the context of the
situation and that adopting a single, rigid style is inefficient in the long term.
In Nestle:
Nestlé is no exception to this, its 150 years in existence a testament to its success.
During 2015 it is thought that the company sold $90bn worth of goods across almost
200 countries. Others estimate that out of each and every cup of coffee drunk in the
world, Nestlé’s iconic Nescafé can claim ownership to making one in five. For
example, nestle basically starts from the idea of food cereals for the children but later
their management realized the need of other food items for the wellbeing of customers
as well as for the company financial status. So, with the passage of time Nestle
introduced its juices, nectar, and fruit drinks, nestle water and also the dairy products.
So, their management applies changes with time to time so that the company cannot
get stuck. And also, the revenue can be increased in the long term for the company.

and preference

requirements
