Our client, a conglomerate focusing on fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), was growing with data. Manual data management and reporting processes were time-consuming, hindering their ability to make swift, data-driven decisions. Extracting insights from their ERP and Sales systems was a laborious manual exercise, leaving them with outdated, fragmented information. This data bottleneck obstructed their ability to analyze sales performance, track commissions and incentives, and react effectively to market trends.
What Was Done
We designed and built a centralized data repository, acting as a single source of truth for all their ERP and sales data. This data hub enabled continuous data integration by ingesting raw data from both systems, cleaning and transforming it, and loading it into the data warehouse. This robust data foundation empowered the client to:
- Automate data ingestion and transformation: Raw data flowed seamlessly from their internal systems into the data warehouse, ready for analysis.
- Generate real-time reports and visualizations: Interactive dashboards and insightful reports, accessible across devices, provide a clear, up-to-date picture of their business performance.
- Track sales performance and incentives: Monitor sales metrics, analyze commission structures, and optimize incentive programs for maximum impact.
- Make faster, data-driven decisions: With real-time insights readily available, the client could react swiftly to market shifts, adjust their strategies, and capitalize on new opportunities.
Real-time sales performance reports made available through seamless data integration from source to target.
