Case Study: Avnet Technology Solutions Australia achieves 20% IT productivity gains and transparent sales & inventory insights with Qlik

QlikView Transforms Avnet’s Sales Effort

Avnet Technology Solutions Australia, a 100‑person division of global distributor Avnet, supports over 700 business partners but struggled to turn ERP transactions into actionable insight. Line‑level profitability, stock usage and customer/channel performance were hard to see, and IT spent roughly 20 hours a month producing dozens of manual sales reports—limiting the company’s ability to market, forecast and manage inventory dynamically.

Using Inside Info’s prebuilt QlikView integration with Avnet’s JIWA ERP, the company deployed a self‑service sales and management analytics app in under a week. The tool, quickly adopted by 64 users with no formal training, delivered consolidated views of sales, margins, inventory and service metrics, improved IT productivity by about 20%, cut data‑entry errors nearly threefold, and strengthened short‑term forecasting and inventory management for faster, more profitable decisions.
