Solving Complex Business Problems

The Biltmore Estate - When Less is More

OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY

The Biltmore Estate is an extensive 8,000+ acre property in North Carolina with multiple attractions. Biltmore asked Integrated Insight to determine the optimal routing structure for their property-wide bus service for each period of seasonal demand. An agent-based simulation was developed, taking into account guest arrival rates, destination, loading/unloading time, and bus capacities. These assumptions were based on in-person and automated data collection, systems data, and previous project experience. The simulations provided key insight for management to optimize costs and improve the guest experience by reducing the number of buses, thereby eliminating congestion and longer waits.

Dreamworld - Knowing Your Value

PRICING AND PROMOTION STRATEGY

Located on the Gold Coast of Australia, Dreamworld theme park offers a variety of attractions and animal experiences and also has an adjacent waterpark, WhiteWater World. To fully realize the potential of Dreamworld, Integrated Insight was engaged to conduct brand research and develop a holistic pricing strategy. Research informed awareness, perceptions and knowledge of the park, as well as primary motivators and barriers to visitation. The pricing strategy leveraged the unique assets of Dreamworld to provide guests choice and deliver an excellent value for price paid. Included were structural pricing, promotions, and distribution strategy.

Awareness and knowledge, as well as perceptions of product quality, variety, and customer service were studied among consumers who live within easy access to The Fresh Market.

Featured Case Studies

Simulation Modeling

Identifying Reopening Strategies For Major League Baseball Stadium

Post COVID-19, Major League Baseball stadium operators faced challenges figuring out how to safely welcome guests back. To help an MLB stadium plan for a safe and successful opening, Integrated Insight used agent-based simulation to model the effect of operational scenarios on guest traffic flow to identify potential friction points, crowding, and excess queue times. The model simulated guest arrival, ticket scan, security screening, and navigation to seats with adjustments for social distancing.
