Challenges
Our client, one of the most renowned eco-friendly baby products manufacturers in the US, faced significant challenges that hindered their operations, leading to delays and financial losses. The inability to analyze their data in real-time was a major obstacle that needed to be addressed urgently.
They faced several challenges during the process, including:
- Manual processing of vast amounts of data: This led to errors and delays in decision-making, causing significant setbacks for the company.
- Data modeling using complex VLOOKUP: Comparing data across departments and time periods became difficult, leading to ineffective analysis and reporting.
- Incorrect charges and fines from delivery partners: The company faced significant financial losses due to these errors.
- Lack of proper data visualization: Analyzing data and generating reports became challenging, resulting in inefficient data processing.
Time is of the essence for our client as they need to make critical business decisions quickly. With the need to analyze data in real-time, finding a solution to their data processing challenges became an urgent priority.
Solutions
Softweb Solutions took on the task of implementing Power BI to revolutionize the data processing capabilities of the company. Our team conducted a thorough analysis of the client’s processes and worked closely with their staff to identify their data needs. We implemented Power BI with their ERP and CRM systems, creating a centralized reporting system for data visualization.
Our team of data scientists extracted data from diverse sources such as OneDrive, Excel, SharePoint and more. They transformed data and loaded it into the Snowflake platform.
Our solution offers several urgent features that are essential for business operations, including:
- A customized dashboard displaying the company’s KPIs in real-time, such as sales, production, and inventory levels, providing informed decision-making with data visualization and analysis.
- Quick and accurate report generation capabilities.
- Comparison of data across departments and time periods for better insights and analysis.
- Consolidation and organization of data from various sources for a centralized reporting system.
- Close monitoring of KPIs to identify trends and take corrective action when necessary.
The impact of Power BI was significant, allowing the company to improve production efficiency, reduce costs, and increase sales, optimizing the shipping process and reducing financial losses. The customizable dashboard provides real-time data visualization, making it easier to identify trends and patterns relevant to their business.
The client can now generate multiple reports, including:
- Ship Station Dashboard (NetSuite Dashboard): This dashboard provides transit charts and parcel audit reports to assist the client in optimizing their shipping operations.
- Marketplace Dashboard: With this dashboard, the client can compare the losses and overheads of their courier partners, enabling them to make informed decisions regarding their partnerships.
- Quality Metric Dashboard: This dashboard allows the client’s staff to compile reshipment data and identify causes, providing an understanding of the volume of reshipments and their underlying reasons.
Our developers also trained the company’s staff on how to use Power BI, including data input, report generation, and dashboard customization techniques. We provide ongoing support to ensure that the system functions correctly and their staff can use it effectively.
Our solution aimed to provide an efficient and accurate solution that met the client’s data processing needs, helping them optimize their operations and make informed decisions with urgency.
