Northern Tool + Equipment Turns to AI for Pricing Strategy

To improves its pricing strategy, home improvement chain Northern Tool + Equipment has partnered with Revionics, an Aptos Company, as its intelligent pricing platform.

Revionics specializes in pricing, promotions and advanced analytics solutions. Northern Tool + Equipment will use the new pricing platform for pricing optimization, promotions, markdowns and competitive intelligence to unlock new pricing strategies to achieve stronger financial results and increase overall customer satisfaction.

John Bakke, executive vice president of Northern Tool + Equipment, says the new pricing intelligence will enable the company to bring increased levels of automation, scale and sophistication into how it manages omnichannel pricing. Using AI algorithms, Revionics’s tools will enable Northern Tool + Equipment to deliver optimized pricing strategies based on customer demand, local conditions and various other factors.

“Retail pricing is both an art and a science,” says Aptos CEO Pete Sinisgalli. “In today’s fast-paced and highly competitive retail landscape, retailers cannot afford to have science missing from the equation. We are proud to support Northern Tool + Equipment as it achieves a centralized pricing strategy that can enhance shopper loyalty and business performance.”
