It not only describes or reports what has culminated in to the As-Is situation, but also predicts what can happen in the future based on the different variables and the corresponding historical data.

It also enables knowledge discovery or predicts and prescribes Corrective and Preventive Actions or the variables that have to be controlled and monitored to manifest the desired output.

The models offer high levels of accuracy with the output that is generated and work the best with voluminous data or Big Data.
