Case Study: AriensCo reduces data integration footprint by 83% with Qlik Talend (Qlik)

AriensCo streamlines its data environment by 83% to deliver long-term, high-quality outcomes

AriensCo, a fifth-generation, Brillion, Wisconsin–based manufacturer of outdoor power equipment (Ariens®, Gravely®, AS‑Motor®), faced a fragmented data ecosystem with multiple ETL tools, varied data sources (DB2, SQL Server, Oracle, Manhattan SCALE, flat files, APIs) and seasonal forecasting needs that made access, visibility and process efficiency difficult. The company needed a unified integration approach to streamline operations, improve data access and reduce workloads across finance, sales, supply chain and customer service.

Working with partner Passerelle, AriensCo migrated to Qlik Talend as a single integration platform, centralizing trusted data flows and reusing code across teams. The move cut the integration software portfolio by 83%, eliminated unplanned warehouse outages, significantly reduced development times, sped partner onboarding from months to weeks, improved EDI and supply‑chain workflows, and freed staff to focus on higher‑value business activities.
