How Chemosvit delivered group-wide BI without a large IT project

Problem

Chemosvit had a robust internal ERP system that had been developed over many years, but it was no longer keeping pace with the company’s growing data needs. Given the size of the group and the breadth of its manufacturing operations, the company started losing visibility across processes and data flows.

The absence of an analytics tool led to time-consuming operations, inefficient decision-making, and limited ability to respond flexibly to new requirements. Chemosvit was looking for a solution that would help consolidate data and make reporting more efficient.

Solution

We built an analytics layer on top of the internal ERP system, unifying reporting and making data accessible across the company without dependence on IT. The result is faster operational reporting, digitalized processes, and the ability to work with data beyond technical teams.

Before

Reporting dependent on ERP and manual outputs
Diverse data without a unified analytics layer
Limited involvement of users without an IT background
Lengthy inventory counts taking up to a week

After

Inventory counts and asset records completed in seconds
Better process visibility across the company
Ability for non-IT users to work with data
Qlik as the central analytics and visualization platform

Solution

Use of Inphinity Forms for simple and mobile data collection
Gradual and pragmatic approach without large-scale transformation projects
Clear role split: Orion ERP for data collection, Qlik for analysis and distribution
Pilot deployment of Qlik in a smaller subsidiary, followed by knowledge transfer
Involvement of internal people with deep business knowledge instead of relying on IT
Launch of a broader digital transformation built on data and a deep understanding of company processes.

From my experience, two people with the right drive and capacity are enough to support the entire company. Qlik is flexible, accessible, and makes sense even in an organization as robust as Chemosvit.
