Driving Insights with Power BI Dashboards for a Truck OEM Suspension Manufacturer
Introduction
deltAlyz Corp. partnered with a truck OEM suspension manufacturer to implement comprehensive Power BI dashboards. These dashboards provided the executive, finance, and production teams with actionable insights, leveraging data from SAP and Salesforce for data-driven decision-making.
The Challenge
The manufacturer faced challenges with fragmented data across multiple platforms, including SAP for enterprise resource planning and Salesforce for customer relationship management. Key issues included:
- Limited Visibility: Executives lacked a unified view of organizational performance metrics.
- Manual Reporting Efforts: Finance teams spent significant time consolidating data for reporting.
- Disconnected Production Insights: Production data was not readily accessible in real-time, delaying critical decision-making.
The company needed an analytics solution that could consolidate data from SAP and Salesforce and deliver meaningful insights through dynamic dashboards.
Our Approach
To address these challenges, we designed and deployed a tailored Power BI solution, focusing on the following areas:
- Data Integration:
- Consolidated data from SAP and Salesforce into a centralized repository for analysis.
- Implemented ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes to clean, transform, and standardize data for consistency.
- Dashboard Development:
- Executive Dashboards: Provided a high-level view of key performance indicators (KPIs) such as revenue, market share, and operational efficiency.
- Finance Dashboards: Enabled analysis of cash flow, expenses, and profitability by customer and product line.
- Production Dashboards: Visualized real-time metrics such as production capacity, downtime, and inventory levels.
- Real-Time Reporting:
- Designed dashboards with real-time data synchronization to keep decision-makers informed.
- Integrated drill-down capabilities for in-depth analysis of specific metrics.
- Training and Support:
- Conducted workshops for the executive, finance, and production teams to ensure effective use of the dashboards.
- Provided ongoing support for additional customization and feature enhancements.
The Results
The Power BI solution delivered transformative benefits for the manufacturer, including:
Improved Decision-Making: Finance teams used detailed analytics to identify cost-saving opportunities and forecast revenue trends.
Unified Data Visibility: Executive teams gained a comprehensive view of business performance across departments.
Increased Efficiency: Automated data workflows reduced manual reporting time by 80%.
