Challenge

Different business areas drive complexity and require further end-to-end process and system integration

Consulting approach

Implementation of an application-oriented self-service solution with advanced planning & analytics to provide meaningful analysis and planning as well as to ensure data harmonization

Customer Benefit & Solution

Development of a business and self-service oriented, scalable and end-to-end integrated advanced planning and analytics solution for controlling integrated cross-divisional processes

The same is true of the consolidation of KIBAG’s business units and subsidiaries. This must be based on integrated data marts that also allow more-complex analyses to be prepared quickly and without significant project costs.

Also, ever shorter-term, but also channel-specific, customer requirements pose enormous challenges for profitability and, above all, merchandize planning. The key success factors here are end-to-end integrated planning processes and systems that enable a channel-specific bottom-up perspective, on the one hand, but also always maintain a holistic strategic top-down view, on the other – that successfully maps the high level of technical complexity while also authentically modeling the company’s organizational structures. It is thus important to ensure a flexible degree of integration that reflects the company’s day-to-day workflows, but without creating too many dependencies.

At the same time, flexible, user-oriented self-service solutions are needed for quickly preparing customized and business-oriented analyses and plans – but without soaring investments in complex projects and internal or external IT resources.
