The Challenge
Salto Systems, a global manufacturing company specializing in electronic access control systems, was in need of a balanced scorecard in a single tool. The company wanted to deploy this tool across its sales, accounts, quality control, and aftersales returns business units. The company's managers were looking for a technology that could provide all the capabilities that used to require a complete package of products. The company began the deployment of the business intelligence (BI) application in September 2009 and completed it in April 2010.
The Solution
Salto Systems decided to deploy QlikView, a business intelligence (BI) application, across its sales, accounts, quality control, and aftersales returns business units. The implementation of QlikView at Salto Systems helps the company to monitor financial and sales indicators with extraordinary speed. The BI application integrates information from different SQL Server 2005 data sources. At present, six users in senior management are working with QlikView, together with one developer and almost the whole global sales team of Salto Systems. The volume of data consolidated with the BI tool amounts to a total of 5,000,000 records, used with amazing ease on a daily basis.

CleanTelligent Enhances Janitorial Software Solutions with Infor Birst
CleanTelligent Software, a company that aids in-house and contracted janitorial teams in streamlining communication and improving quality control, faced a significant challenge. Their clients were demanding a more dynamic way to present reporting data. The company's software was primarily used to analyze and summarize a custodial team's performance, replacing a highly manual, paper-driven process. However, the initial differences between service providers in the janitorial industry are often unclear, and the cost of switching is comparatively low. This situation led to high client turnover, with a janitorial company's customer lifetime averaging four years or less. CleanTelligent needed to improve the customer experience with dynamic dashboards and reporting, retain customers through predictive analysis, capitalize on advanced analytics capabilities to build market differentiation, and improve client retention rates.
