In retail this is used all the time, but not so much in real estate. What if retailers applied the same tactics to their real estate assets?  That is exactly what is happening. Asset Managers for large retailer corporations are using the same ERP processes that the retail side uses.  They analyze the data to determine appropriate options for alternative revenue and specialty leasing opportunities that will increase the value of corporate owned assets.
