Data-driven strategy is a key business tool in an increasingly competitive environment, ever-changing customer interests and complex distribution systems. Effective sales and operations planning requires a high-quality analysis of internal and external processes that is able to synchronize financial, production and operational planning with accurate demand forecasting. Qlik allows to combine internal systems (ERP, SCM, MES, forecasting, etc.) and external data sources (third-part logistics services, consumer demand and expectations). This makes it possible to better understand the current situation, improve the forecasts accuracy, optimize productive capacity and work in near real time.
How does Qlik help to manage supply chain?
- Forecasting and planning:
- analysis of key demand stimulators by examining data from internal and external sources in real time;
- previously hidden trends identification;
- analysis of sales channels and orders dynamics;
- comparison of the supply plan with demand forecasts;
- planning of stocks by comparison with production facilities and suppliers capabilities;
- manufacturing planning optimization by analyzing data on sales, marketing activities, purchases, etc.
- Inventory management
