NEW YORK, Nov. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McKinsey & Company has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Retail Media Network Service Providers 2024 Vendor Assessment (doc # US52574122, September 2024). McKinsey was recognized as a Leader among 13 service providers that develop, build, deliver, and support the creation and monetization of Retail Media Networks (RMN).
According to the IDC MarketScape, “Almost 32% of respondents identified a key constraint for building an RMN as staff/consultant expertise and knowledge about RMNs and implementation. It is for this reason that service providers are critical to retailers looking to bolster their retail businesses with RMN monetization.”
After a thorough evaluation of McKinsey's strategic value, commercial and technical capabilities, and track-record of delivery, the IDC MarketScape concluded that:
“McKinsey is well known for its strategic applications in the retail media market. The company's recent initiatives leverage a blueprint, build, and accelerate model that allows McKinsey to leverage expertise in the space across multiple client configurations. The Firm brings an enormous amount of talent in both retail and online media, and the intersection of these domains allows McKinsey to engage with prominent retailers in architecting and building their RMNs. McKinsey's focus on strategy, business case development, ad product and pricing, tech and data enablement, and sales and go-to-market strategy sets the stage for building RMNs worldwide.”
Key strengths of McKinsey’s that were highlighted in the report, include:
- Business advocacy for retail media: “McKinsey brings highly nimble teams that are designed to accelerate internal operations and supplement any gaps with expert support and leadership until companies can operate independently. The Firm emphasizes executive management buy-in, cross-functional stakeholder alignment, capability development, and change management.”
- Deep expertise and resources: “McKinsey offers expediting client launches and ensuring RMN success using superlative talent. The firm has deep benches of expertise built through building numerous RMNs and experience mitigating both common and rare obstacles across clients.”
- Objective-oriented delivery: “Much of the focus for McKinsey's team is leveraging data to support model building, scenario planning, and establishing goals and objectives, including financial specifications that executives are willing to support for the RMN development journey. Additionally, the Firm has a robust suite of commercial and technical assets that allow it to support key outcomes at every phase of the RMN journey with customizable approaches and varying levels of complexity.”
