挑战
Gatorade de Mexico, a subsidiary of PepsiCo, Inc., was facing challenges in accessing real-time sales data to proactively respond to market changes. The company was using MicroStrategy for Business Intelligence (BI) and reporting, but the tool’s complexity made it difficult for the sales support team to easily access and analyze the real-time data they needed. Producing reports could take anywhere from 40 minutes for basic sales performance reports to four hours for more strategic sales analysis. The business users needed to engage a sales support analyst to run multiple MicroStrategy reports, export them to Excel, and then map, update and consolidate the data to get the answers they needed. Since MicroStrategy only refreshed on a daily basis, the information was outdated and the high level of manual manipulation increased the margin of error.

With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
