挑战
Crown Worldwide Group, a global logistics company, was using a mix of BusinessObjects and home-grown software for business intelligence analysis and reporting. However, they needed to supplement BusinessObjects with a dashboard solution to make business intelligence more easily accessible to branch managers throughout the company. The solution needed to enable managers to easily explore information that is relevant to them visually. The company was finding that BusinessObjects required a lot of upfront work, new reports took a lot of IT time to produce and their business leaders were demanding dashboard business intelligence tools. They researched and considered Qlikview, BusinessObjects Crystal Exelsius dashboards and other available solutions in the market.
解决方案
Crown decided to implement QlikView, a business intelligence tool, to supplement their existing BusinessObjects solution. QlikView was chosen for its eye-catching, intuitive interface and faster time to market. The implementation was carried out by QlikTech’s Hong Kong partner, Velocity Business Solutions. They organised a ‘Seeing is Believing’ demonstration of QlikView using Crown data to show how QlikView could meet the company’s BI goals and reduce data inconsistencies. This was followed by a two-week proof of concept period. Crown pulls data from its 55 countries into a central data warehouse utilising SQL Server software. The initial priority for Velocity Business Solutions was to support Crown’s QUEST program by giving branch managers QlikView dashboards to view their key performance indicators in near real time. Crown has also extended the use of QlikView to its finance department for analysis of its P&L account.

Case Study
Jaguar Land Rover Speeds Order-to-Cash Cycle
At Jaguar Land Rover, vehicles physically move around the facility for testing, configuration setting, rework and rectification, leading to a longer search time to get each vehicle to its next process facility. The main goal is to minimize the vehicles' dwell time between end of line and the delivery chain which was previously a manually intensive process. Jaguar Land Rover's goal was to build on the success of an earlier RFID project and improve the efficiency of delivering vehicles to meet dealer orders.
