Customer Challenges

With rapid business expansion and growing operational complexity, the retailer faced significant roadblocks in achieving efficiency and scalability. Their existing processes heavily relied on manual efforts and lacked insight-driven decision-making. Key challenges included:

Low Dashboard Adoption

Complex dashboards caused engagement issues. Using Smart Insights and Power BI Q&A, executives could understand data instantly, boosting dashboard adoption and enabling quicker decision-making.

Slow Dashboard Development

Slow dashboard development processes led to delays in delivering insights. Power BI Copilot streamlined report creation, reducing development time by 60%.

Notification for Sales and Profit Drop

The client needed timely notifications when sales or profit dropped by a certain percentage. Without automated alerts, action delays occurred, leading to missed opportunities. With Data Alerts, response time was reduced by 50%.

Root Cause Analysis for Sales and Profit Fluctuations

Identifying the root cause of KPI fluctuations was challenging. Using Decomposition Tree and Key Influencer visuals reduced manual analysis time by 25%. This root cause clarity was crucial to their pharmaceutical data analytics goals.
