Most companies have reports.
Few companies have analytics.
The difference is that the reports show what happened,
and analytics make it possible to understand why it happened and what to do next.
Business analytics means that data is organized into models that enable comparison, trends and decision making.
Without serious analytics:
numbers are viewed in isolation,
no context,
problems are noticed late,
and decisions are made based on feelings.
Good analytics enable:
a clear overview of the business,
performance measurement,
problem identification,
and monitoring the effect of decisions.
In other words:
analytics turns data into understanding.
At BI, we don’t start with graphics, but with questions that management really has.
The process always includes:
understanding of business objectives,
defining key indicators (KPI),
data modeling,
and only then drafting the report.
Analysis of sales by periods and segments
Cost and margin tracking
Inventory control
Operational KPI indicators
Financial and management reports
What does management really want to know?
We create a structure for the analysis.
We present data in a meaningful way.
We check whether the numbers make business sense.
Analytics evolves along with the needs of the company.
When analytics are well set up:
problems are seen earlier,
decisions are based on facts,
the trends are clear,
communication in the company is better,
management has control.
Analytics don’t provide answers —
it allows the right questions to be asked.
Through the analysis of trends by periods, segments and channels, with a comparison with previous situations.
In places where there are the highest volumes, the highest frequency of activities or inefficient processes.
Stocks with low turnover in relation to average consumption and storage time.
The segments with the highest margin in relation to the costs they generate.
Those whose effects can be directly measured through the change of key indicators (revenue, cost, margin, productivity).
