Real problems.
Measurable outcomes.
Three anonymised case studies from live engagements. Every number is real and in production today.
4-Hour Monday Reports — Automated to a Live Dashboard
A 3-plant manufacturing company ran weekly performance reporting entirely manually every Monday. Four analysts spent 4+ hours pulling data from SQL Server, formatting in Excel and emailing static slides to the management team. The slides were often out of date before they were read.
A live Power BI dashboard connected directly to SQL Server with row-level security by plant. Scheduled refresh runs at 6am daily. Every meeting now opens with live data on screen — nobody waits for the Monday report because it no longer exists.
200 Vendor Invoices Per Week — From 6 Hours to 22 Minutes
Finance team at an FMCG company spent every Friday afternoon reconciling 200+ vendor invoices across three separate Excel files: one from the ERP, one from the vendor and one internal tracker. Manual matching, constant errors, frequent re-work, and overtime every single week.
Excel VBA automation that opens all three source files, normalises invoice formats, runs three-way matching logic, flags exceptions by category, and generates a formatted exception report. One button, 22 minutes, zero manual copying.
40 Vendors, Fragmented Files — One Live Supply Chain Command Centre
Supply chain team managed 40+ vendors through separate Excel files and email threads. No consolidated view. Stockouts happened frequently because nobody saw the combined picture. The PO approval cycle took 9 working days from request to release.
A Power BI supply chain dashboard pulling from a consolidated SQL database, with automated PO triggers via Power Automate. When any item drops below minimum stock threshold, a Teams alert fires and a pre-formatted draft PO is auto-generated for one-click approval.
