PROSPECTIVE with Dominique Barth, Guest Speaker
Mobility As a Service: how to think about the evolution of the provision of vehicles to private individuals, implement dynamic pricing and manage resources?
"Urban mobility and its social, environmental and economic challenges lead us to think about the evolution of the provision of vehicles to individuals in a "MaaS" approach. In a dynamic, competitive context and with a limited amount of data, Machine Learning is a real prospect for dynamic pricing and resource management."
With Dominique, we will be able to project ourselves into the future and start to design the offer of tomorrow.

Researcher and eminent expert in computer sciences, Dominique Barth is Professor at the University of Versailles-St Quentin / University of Paris-Saclay. He also leads the DAVID laboratory, whose project explores the digital city, its applications and its consequences. He is Director of the SIHS Research Federation of the CNRS and of the joint laboratory-ANR HYPHES.
He presented the results of research on mobility issues and their impact on the "mobility as a service" approach.He insisted on the importance of data, in volume but especially in quality, which is the crucial element of any good optimization.Dominique does not believe that there is "magic" in AI but a laborious work of data collection, a rigorous training of the models and a pragmatic vision of the daily use of the results to be adapted to the car rental context.
We are proud to collaborate with Dominique through a thesis work in progress.
Have you ever calculated the number of combinations you face each day when you multiply your number of stations x groups of cars x duration? A few hundred? Maybe a few thousand?
Since you don't have time to do all this manually, Charles introduced the new Car Rental Insights module he is designing.
The objective is to highlight for you the combination with the highest impact on your car rental business and allow you to focus on it for maximum performance.
The WeYield applications are super comprehensive and detailed to dive deep into the analysis. But the difficulty is having multiple tabs open to go through the different features.
Yohann introduced a new module called Updater. This is a central control panel that allows you to instantly view all key performance indicators in 30 seconds and optimize your business.
It was designed following feedback from customers on how they use the different modules of the applications.
The preparation of the budget is a special moment in the year because it allows us to look ahead to the next period.
Most of the time, it is made from data extractions in Excel and allows to establish different scenarios, which is long and tedious.
Thibaud presented his current work on the creation of the Budget module in WeYield applications. It will allow to make a forecast of the commercial activity allowing to establish a precise action plan. It will be possible to make several scenarios, to archive them and to choose one that will be used as a basis of comparison for the real.
Working to continuously improve the skills of car rental employees is a major issue for team retention and company performance. This requires a good command of performance optimization techniques as well as a perfect knowledge of revenue management theory.
Anne-Claire and Charles presented the new Learning Center project. It will be used to train the teams in charge of Yield Management in your company. It can also be the heart of your company's internal knowledge sharing and the storage of your procedures to make sure that nothing gets lost.
Since 2019, WeYield has been working on building a forecasting model to more accurately anticipate your future car rental business.Christian, WeYield's CTO, has developed an AI-based algorthmic model that has been tested by various customers.
During this roundtable, Emmanuel de Brosses (consultant, Optimister) and Etienne de Casabianca (Director of Revenue and Capacity, Europcar Atlantique) came to share their experience and their first concrete results of using forecasting in their optimization decisions.
For him, revenue management is a game where you need to have all the cards in your hand. Emmanuel founded WeYield in 2012. A choice made after 25 years of experience with the largest groups for whom revenue management is central (Hotel Groups, Theme Parks, International Car Renters). He shares his passion for the business and enables his clients to work better with the power of digital technologies. In 10 years, he has made WeYield a unique and globally recognized player in the car rental revenue management industry.
