The Challenge
Adige Commercialcarta, a Verona-based company manufacturing bags and paper for food products and packaging materials, was facing challenges due to its growth and diversification of activities. The company needed to expand its corporate software to support both the production division and the sales network. After implementing an ERP management and production-planning system, the company needed a tool that would allow it to quickly and simply extract and analyze sales and production data. The company was looking for a solution that was manageable, easy to implement, and could provide in-depth sales analyses, which would also be very useful for its regional agents.
About The Customer
Adige Commercialcarta is a company based in Verona that has been manufacturing bags and paper for food products and packaging materials since 1995. The company's broad range of products and widespread sales network allow it to promptly and efficiently serve customers in the textile, footwear, fruit and vegetable, large-scale retail trade and wholesale sectors both in Italy and in Europe. The company boasts UNI EN ISO 9001 quality certification and is committed to constant research and development. It currently employs 55 people and generates annual sales of approximately €10 million.
The Solution
Adige Commercialcarta chose QlikView, a complete suite of business analysis tools developed by QlikTech International. The company began to implement the suite and immediately experienced its speed while using the consulting services provided by Infodati, QlikView Italy’s certified partner. QlikView was set up to analyze the data from the management system and the Office and Access systems in only two hours. QlikView can analyze data from any source using a patented, “associative” design and uses “in-memory” analysis, loading data from underlying sources into a computer’s main memory (RAM) and calculates metrics ‘on the fly’ as the user performs ad-hoc, point-and-click analysis. QlikView was initially implemented by Adige Commercialcarta to perform in-depth sales analyses, which were also very useful for its regional agents. The system provides data by region, province, sales target, product and many other factors, allowing the company to carefully follow the sales evolution and promptly intervene to correct any errors.
