Case Study: AutoZone accelerates retail success with Information Builders ibi analytics platform

AutoZone handles 1M+ daily data requests with Information Builders

AutoZone, a major American automotive parts retailer, faced the challenge of needing to optimize its supply chain, automate store operations, improve merchandising, and predict market trends. To address this, they turned to the analytics platform from vendor Information Builders.

The solution involved implementing Information Builders' ibi platform, which provided self-service dashboards for store operations and a dedicated portal for vendors. This enabled 1,500 vendors to manage their own inventory and analyze product sales. The results were significant, with the system handling over one million data requests per day with sub-second response times, empowering 50,000 employees with self-service reporting and greatly optimizing inventory management.
