The Challenge
Honda was focused on commercializing services that create new value through the visualization and analysis of a huge volume of location data. They were developing BtoB data analysis services based on motion data captured from Honda’s own car navigation system, Internavi. However, they faced issues with processing time series location data with a time history. The huge volume of data stored in the cloud data was not being fully coped with, not only with Excel but even with BI tools.
About The Customer
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. is a multinational conglomerate corporation known primarily for its automobiles and motorcycles. Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Honda is one of the leading automotive manufacturers in the world. The company is known for its innovation and commitment to advancing technology. In this case, Honda was looking to commercialize services that create new value through the visualization and analysis of a large volume of location data. They were developing BtoB data analysis services based on motion data captured from Honda’s own car navigation system, Internavi.
The Solution
Honda implemented Alteryx Designer to handle their data analytics needs. Alteryx Designer is a data analytics tool that is easy to use and has significantly reduced the time Honda spends on data analytics. This has helped Honda make steady progress in commercializing their new data analytics services. In the future, Honda plans to become even more proficient in the use of Alteryx Designer and to strengthen linkage with databases and BI tools. As their sales team grows, they plan to take out additional Alteryx Designer licenses and increase the number of users in other divisions of Honda, such as the Consolidated Finance Division, which could make use of Alteryx Designer.
