Commercial analytics solution for the modern CFO, Chief Transformation, and Strategy officers

The problem

To drive revenue growth and enhance sales productivity in a global market, chief transformation and strategy officers and CFOs analyze various data points on crucial metrics such as sales trends, profit margins, market share, and pricing power.

Manually analyzing each metric in isolation on random Excel sheets and ad-hoc analytics processes from various subsidiaries is time-consuming and resource-intensive. This is especially true for companies that have grown inorganically and invested little in their data and analytics infrastructure.

Companies are also left behind by competitors who embrace automation and modern technologies to optimize their commercial analytics efforts. Thankfully, our commercial analytics solution creates a single source of truth, which CFOs and other domain executives can leverage to substantially augment their decision-making process and spur global transformation.


The solution

Our commercial analytics transformation capabilities make these solutions come to life for CFOs, chief transformation, and strategy officers:

  • Data Automation: Streamline global data collection and processing from various systems and subsidiaries.

  • Insights Automation: Use tools like Tableau and Power BI to provide scalable analytics for your commercial teams so they can win more, drive customer share of wallet, or save costs.

  • Automated Sales Reporting: Track and analyze sales data efficiently, integrating shipment, consumption, and sell-out data where applicable. 

  • Automated KPI Reporting: Monitor key performance indicators automatically.

These solutions eliminate manual reporting and time-consuming, ad-hoc analysis. They also enable companies to rectify global data quality issues seamlessly.
