Case Study: FiberMark achieves real-time enterprise data visibility and instant ROI with QlikView (Qlik)

FiberMark unlocks its enterprise data with QlikView

FiberMark, a multinational maker of specialty fiber-based materials, faced growing pain as data from its JD Edwards ERP and other systems outpaced its ability to extract insight. Managers relied on thousands of static reports and IT spent excessive time producing them, while data sat in multiple incompatible sources (SAP, Oracle, Access, Excel), leaving the business without timely, actionable intelligence.

FiberMark deployed QlikView—getting a sales application up in under a week—and rolled the solution out to 130 users across sales, purchasing, inventory, finance and HR. QlikView’s in-memory associative engine pulls data from all sources via ODBC, enabling fast, intuitive analysis with minimal training; the company saw immediate payback by uncovering and correcting order errors, cut printing costs roughly in half, and gained much better executive visibility and adoption across the business.
