Austin, Texas (PRWEB) November 10, 2014 -- Zilliant, an optimization company that helps businesses make better pricing and sales decisions, today announced that Dr. Hossam Zaki, Zilliant’s vice president of pricing science, will deliver a presentation entitled Price and Revenue Optimization in the Rental Industry, on Nov. 11 at the 2014 INFORMS Annual Meeting in San Francisco.
Dr. Zaki will illustrate the differences and challenges of revenue management models between business-to-consumer industries, such as the airline industry, and the rental equipment industry, and further highlight differences in these models between one-way truck rentals and rental equipment. His presentation will explore the opportunities for optimization models to solve several industry challenges, including fleet repositioning to maximize revenue and how to determine the optimal price for each rental transaction to maximize the expected revenue.
“There is a significant opportunity for revenue lift in the rental industry that can be captured with sophisticated modeling and actionable analytics,” said Dr. Zaki, who has more than 20 years of experience designing and deploying science-based technology across a variety of industries, and holds a single-author U.S. patent, a Ph.D. in Operations Research from Southern Methodist University, and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mechanical Engineering from Cairo University.
