Case Study: Henkel achieves real-time sales and finance insights with Incorta

Henkel cuts 10M-record query time from 7 hours to 30 minutes with Incorta

Henkel, a global leader in adhesive technologies, beauty, and laundry/home care, faced significant data challenges. Their sales and finance teams were hindered by stale reports that were a day old and inflexible dashboards that couldn't be customized or connect to multiple sources. This data delay and lack of access to real-time insights were holding back sales performance and overall profitability for the company. They turned to vendor Incorta for a solution.

By implementing Incorta's integrated data management and analytics platform, Henkel consolidated its systems and gained access to near real-time data. The solution delivered dramatic results, including a 93% decrease in query time for 10 million+ records—from seven hours down to 30 minutes. This enabled more efficient accounts receivable, which led to a 75% improvement in credit sales and a reduction in outstanding AR from 40% to 12. Incorta also helped Henkel identify cost-saving opportunities, resulting in savings of two million Egyptian Pounds and a significant increase in profitability.
