Case Study: Ingersoll Rand achieves multimillion-dollar inventory control automation with Alteryx

Ingersoll Rand Automates Multimillion-Dollar Inventory Control with Alteryx

Ingersoll Rand faced a lot of repetitive, low-value inventory analysis work that frustrated the team and consumed the effort of several people. After learning about Alteryx at an internal analytics summit, the team brought in a trial license and used Alteryx to build its first workflow focused on excess inventory, a costly and persistent business problem.

With Alteryx, Ingersoll Rand automated work that had taken four full-time people and reduced it to about half a person, while also uncovering the root causes of excess inventory such as long lead times and missed forecasts. The results were strong enough that the team no longer needed to justify the investment repeatedly, all four team members received licenses, and the group won an internal President’s Award for growth and innovation for work built with Alteryx and Tableau.
