Problem

Model Obaly faced a fragmented SAP environment across its plants without a centralized data foundation. Existing SAP Business Warehouse and Business Objects tools no longer met growing demands for analytics, flexibility and faster decision-making. Data was difficult to access and analyze consistently across plants, while reporting relied on thousands of static reports with limited analytical value. The company needed a more flexible approach that would improve access to data, support independent analytics and create room for growth without unnecessary investment in infrastructure.

Solution

EMARK helped Model Obaly create a unified environment for analytics and data management across its production plants. Data from SAP ERP is connected directly to the analytical environment, giving users centralized access to data and more flexible reporting. The approach also reduced dependence on the traditional SAP BI layer and allowed the company to gradually expand the solution without building a separate data department.

Before

Thousands of static reports with limited analytical value
SAP data split across plants without a centralized view
Limited data access outside a narrow group of specialists
Dependence on SAP BW and BO

After

Interactive dashboards and clearer reporting
Centralized access to data across plants
Stronger data sovereignty and a modern BI approach
Reduced dependence on the traditional SAP BI layer

What we delivered

Focus on data ownership and eliminating vendor lock-in
Gradual roll-out focused on simplicity and user adoption
Unified environment for analytics and data management
Pilot dashboard used to validate the concept with minimal costs
Implementation without the need to build a separate data department
Direct connection to SAP ERP without middleware or an additional integration layer

We wanted something that would allow us to grow without slowing people down with unnecessary complexity. Qlik from EMARK delivered exactly that — fast, flexible, and without vendor lock-in.
