“It took one day for Inside Info to deliver our working QlikView sales performance application.  We took a few weeks to become familiar, made some changes and had finished our first BI deployment by the 30th day.  We were blown away,” Crescitelli enthuses.
 
According to Crescitelli, using QlikView, Bianco now automates analysis of sales, margin, dispatch and customer trends and impacts across its business at the click of a button= and he claims QlikView has improved IT staff productivity saving at least two hours out of each day in not serving ad hoc report requests, while senior management have more detailed visibility of operations.

And, Crescitelli’s colleague, national sales manager Alex Canova, says that since implementing QlikView into the Bianco sales department, the management team can now promptly drill down sales figures within minutes, without the need to rely on our IT department for reports.
 
“QlikView has driven a significant step change for Bianco in the way we work and think,” says Crescitelli, adding that the company now had more detailed, flexible and faster data analysis than ever thought possible from its Lawson ERP system.
 
“We’ve increased our responsiveness to trends and customer demands and improved our ability to generate sales opportunities that quite possibly would not have existed before. Having drill down by customer, selling divisions, product margin and many other options, has taken monitoring sales figures and identifying opportunities to the next level.”

Inside Info is the exclusive Australian distributor and local representative for QlikView, which it says IDC named as the world’s fastest growing business intelligence software.
