挑战

Istobal, a leader in the car, automobile, lorry and bus washing tools sector, was facing a need for Business Intelligence (BI) tools for fast, agile, and easy tracking and better controls. The company was in the midst of an enterprise resource planning (ERP) migration project, which made the need for a BI tool even more necessary. The company needed a tool that could integrate with databases from different systems and some Excel flat files, and that was easy to use and develop. The company was also looking for a tool that could provide better and more efficient information analysis to drive decision-making.

关于客户

Istobal is an industry leader in lubricating equipment with more than 60 years’ experience. Founded by Ismael Tomás Alacreu in Spain in March 1950, it started out as a small vehicle repair workshop. After producing its first lubricating machine and achieving great success with the product, the company decided to change its business plan. The company decided to exit from the repairs market and fully enter into manufacturing lubricating equipment, giving rise as a result to a business that has become an industry leader. The company has diversified into washing products for motor cars, lorries, and buses. It now employs over 500 people and exports products to more than 62 countries worldwide. Constantly evolving and utilising a management model in tune with modern methods has helped Istobal to become a dominant company in the sector, adapting closely to technological advances and continually developing its product line.

解决方案

Istobal chose QlikView as their BI tool. QlikView was deployed to integrate databases from diverse systems and some Excel flat files. The company found QlikView to be a dynamic and easy-to-use tool. At present, a QlikView server has been installed and 45 users are working with the BI software. The project was initiated in April 2010 and was completed with the acquisition of five personal licences. QlikView has been deployed at the head offices in L’Alcudia in Valencia and at branches in various regions of Spain which have access to it, as well as at Istobal branch offices in the United Kingdom, Austria, and the United States. All these users can make the most of the benefits of QlikView remotely via head office and the QlikView server.
