• The dashboard offered an improved and detailed explanation of factors contributing to function and product performance across different regions and hierarchies
• Greater alignment between data originating from different business horizontals
• The data consolidation and visualization system was semi-automated for easier refresh of dashboards
• The solution saved the client a minimum 7 working days a month that was otherwise spent on manually compiling and analyzing data
• The creation of standardized data definitions and a centralized data backend enabled improved communication and decision-making across verticals and functions

The client, a CPG giant dealing in food, agriculture, financial, and industrial products and services worldwide, wanted to consolidate data across different business functions.

The lack of common data definitions had led to misalignment between functions. For instance, different regions were referred to using different terminology by the sales and marketing teams, leading to miscommunication and a poor overall understanding of business performance. This in turn led to inefficient decision-making and resource management, impacting profits negatively.

The client wanted to gain a holistic understanding of business performance through factors such as KPIs, sales, profit, and demand, to compare and analyze performance across years and geographies.

TheMathCompany examined the varied data definitions used by different functions in the business and created a standardized, ground-up, centralized data backend. Following this, dashboards were built for each business stream. By presenting detailed information on relevant KPIs, we enabled the client to reduce their reliance on traditional Excel-based data as well as better communicate, collaborate, and make decisions.

“I would like to thank TheMathCompany for the great job done in working with our internal team and producing multiple dashboards within the contractual period. The KT provided was extremely detailed in terms of content and delivery, and the dashboards built were very effectively structured and documented” – Data and Analytics Manager, Leading Global CPG Firm.
