Qlik powers Mahindra & Mahindra with QlikView

 Qlik has announced that Mahindra & Mahindra Limited (M&M) is using QlikView to transform the way the organization uses data for reporting, analysis and decision-making. M&M has rolled out QlikView in less than 12 weeks after deployment, and across functions including the inventory, sales, as well as finance teams.

“QlikView drives a different type of data analysis within our business. It enables us to be innovative with our thinking, transforming the way we view data. The team loves the powerful capabilities that QlikView brings through a simple, user-intuitive interface, and the widespread adoption means that we are now effectively analyzing real-time data to reduce our costs and drive the business throughout the organization,” said Richard Desouza, Head of IT, Mahindra & Mahindra. “Mahindra & Mahindra is a great example that underscores the importance of a data discovery platform like QlikView that’s so simple and intuitive that anyone from any department can analyze data and discover meaningful insights with it. The more people have access to data, the more value organizations can derive – from cost savings and new sales opportunities to fundamentally transforming the way people think,” said David Telford, Qlik Senior Director & Sector Group Leader of Manufacturing and Service Industries. After reviewing QlikView through technology provider Team Computers, and against solutions like SAP HANA, M&M chose QlikView for its ease of use, speed, and superior data visualization and rendering features. Since deploying QlikView, the organization has seen a dramatic decrease in reporting times, improved inventory control, and improved customer targeting. For example, M&M now is able to easily use QlikView to match the number of tractors sold to each landholding, and then assess from these numbers which landholdings present a potential sales opportunity so they can assign the necessary resources.
