KDS Software Reveals New Insights to Make Plastics More Sustainable With Pentaho

Kirchhoff Datensysteme Software (KDS Software), a leading provider of business software for plastics compounders and recyclers, needed a way to expand the operational and analytical capabilities of its Poly.ERP and Poly.MES solutions to help customers make more sustainable, data-driven decisions amid rising resource and energy costs. The company turned to Pentaho to create a comprehensive analytics offering that would consolidate data, improve visibility, and support better business outcomes.

Using Pentaho Data Integration Enterprise Edition and embedded analytics, KDS Software built Poly.MIS, a flexible analytics application that connects data from multiple sources and delivers dashboards, reports, and self-service analysis. With Pentaho, KDS Software reduced time to insight by 85% versus spreadsheet-based analysis, delivered more than 100 scheduled reports, and helped customers create about 130 new reports per year, while also improving efficiency, sustainability, and competitiveness.
