Business Intelligence for Global Automotive Leader
Challenge
Field Managers were mired in paper reports. They're responsible for quickly tracking huge volumes of discrete data for numerous dealerships to grow sales and profits, yet their time and efforts were dominated by a cumbersome paper-based reporting method that provided little except ad hoc analysis. How could they effectively analyze trends, implement sales promotions or forecast revenue and profit without easy, real-time access to essential data? How could the corporate managers accurately monitor regions if reporting was slow and unwieldy?
