| Summary |
|
Using Abrige REPORTING and EXECUTE! business analytics and performance dashboard applications, and a few custom report templates, the President of this national dessert manufacturer was able to swiftly and significantly improve efficiencies in production and distribution. He can now get directly to what matters most any time and in time to take action to improve results.

| Challenge |
|
While the ERP system provided the transactional capabilities needed to track production and distribute product to a national customer network, it feel short in providing the business intelligence that non-technical executives can quickly use to:
|
Tease out operational inefficiencies among a vast number of SKUs
Monitor performance among and between many brokers across the nation
Manage distribution down to a lower dollar cost
|
| Results |
|
REPORTING provided the vehicle to reach deeper into the operations in the company and analyze the business. Underperforming SKUS were eliminated and labor was reallocated.
EXECUTE! provided an instant feedback loop from the board room to the shop floor. Greater accountability was achieved all along the production and distribution cycle, enabled by the continuous monitoring and communication that is an integral part of Abrige technology.
For example, brokers are now held accountable for economic order quantities. The linkage between products, broker performance, client satisfaction and revenue growth is now easily monitored to best ensure improvements in the bottom line.
