Automating resource intensive reporting

The client

Real-time stock levels for this global logistics & distribution company

This logistics & distribution client is a global leader in mobile accessories and technologies. They manufacture and distribute a range of products related to screen protection, power management, mobile keyboards, cases and personal audio equipment.

The company uses third-party logistic providers to manage and deliver products globally and the management team required daily visibility of stock levels and the value of stock across the business.

The challenge

Manually extracting data from 15 excel sheets, every month

The client had a system in place that heavily relied on extracting data from at least 15 excel sheets, CSV files and web applications. This was a manual process and extremely time-consuming.

Reports, KPIs and business insights were challenging to produce due to:

  • Multiple source data points
  • Multiple varied formats
  • Independent source data points that were not connected

For the client’s monthly reports, it took employees days to gather, extract and verify information, before collating this a in a presentable format. What was then circulated, was a snapshot of a point in time that was outdated by several days or weeks.

This system was very administration intensive and resulted in reports that were provided key business data but were outdated and lacked a deeper level of analytics and insights. Due to this, plans to implement a new ERP system were put on hold.

Consolidated data from 15 excel sheets
90% reduction on administration
25% part cost reduction
The solution

Accessing data securely from the cloud

WrxFlo created a new application where all data is stored on WrxFlo’s Microsoft Azure cloud servers, providing the client with access to reports from the via secure https weblink.

The WrxFlo system revolutionised the clients reporting, going from monthly reports that were already out of data to always on, real-time reports that required no administration.

The WrxFlo solutions:

  • Real-time KPIs and insights
  • Tiered levels of user access
  • Customer support module
  • Easy to use data capture form builder
  • No administration requirement: the system is fully automated

Our own “WrxFlo revolution” has the potential and trajectory, to establish and maintain our place as a “leader” in our global group… A paperless, real-time reporting workplace is now a reality.
