Case Study: Prochem Pipeline Products achieves data-driven efficiencies and automated low-margin detection with Phocas

Prochem stays ahead of the game with data analytics

Prochem, a stainless-steel pipe, fittings and valving distributor serving gas, aerospace, marine and industrial customers across the Asia Pacific from nine branches, faced time-consuming manual financial reviews and limited resources to uncover low-margin sales and address stock inefficiencies such as obsolete and slow-moving items.

By implementing Phocas BI, Prochem automated identification of low-margin invoices, consolidated finance, sales, purchasing and stock data, and set up reports to measure stock cover in months and days. The change delivered significant time savings, streamlined purchasing and inventory processes, faster roll-out of new databases (five added in under a month) and simpler, company-wide reporting that improved decision-making and operational efficiency.
