Case Study: Continental achieves faster, more data-driven decisions with KNIME

Sparking Data Literacy With KNIME And Making Better Decisions

Continental, a global mobility technology company, wanted to raise data literacy across the organization and give thousands of business users a better way to handle data without IT or programming skills. Microsoft Excel and VBA were struggling with maintainability and performance as data volumes and process complexity grew, so Continental turned to KNIME Analytics Platform.

KNIME implemented a company-wide rollout of KNIME Analytics Platform, with KNIME Server used for collaboration on selected projects and custom extensions built by Continental for specific reporting and parsing needs. The result was faster, more automated workflows and stronger decision-making, including over 80% time savings in pilot projects, month-end controlling reduced from 2 days to 30 minutes, and plant budgeting run at 10x precision.
