Project Successes
Business Intelligence System Added to Service and E-Commerce Platform
In our data-driven economy, companies are successful if they not only collect data, but also use it intelligently. In order to create reports that are both meaningful and visually appealing, dotSource implemented Microsoft Power BI for KWS and has since supported the company in terms of business intelligence and data-driven marketing.
Implementing Microsoft Power BI and Using It on a Daily Basis
The main task was not only to integrate the business intelligence system into the system landscape, harmonise it with the data sources and thus provide access to comprehensive data. Through continuous support, dotSource also helps KWS conduct a wide range of analyses and quickly create meaningful reports in order to drive the company forward in a data-driven manner, especially in areas such as e-commerce and customer success.
Software, Service, Data Science – Everything from one Source
In addition, dotSource supports KWS through its data scientists. In the regular weekly meeting between KWS and the dotSource team, ideas are exchanged, requirements for upcoming reports are discussed strategically and technically and then implemented promptly thanks to agile project management. KWS benefits from both the availability of the dotSource hotline and in-house training courses in using Microsoft Power BI.
