Oliver Wyman | Grocery Retail Value Strategy: Reset Pricing Levers Imme…

Minerva judgment

Adopt a category pilot with clear timelines and stop thresholds, validating elasticity, overlap costs, and vendor funding feasibility before deciding whether to scale

Decision owner in the teaching simulationChair of the Grocery Retail Pricing and Value Committee (independent instructional simulation)

Human-controlled next action

The committee chair approves the pilot category list, timeline, and stop thresholds, and requires the margin and supply chain teams to report elasticity and overlap cost evidence within the timeframe

What would reverse the recommendation

If the pilot period includes too few sample categories or too short a timeframe to capture seasonal effects such as promotional halo and supply chain volatility, extend or expand the pilot rather than finalizing the decision on existing results
