Case Study: SML Group achieves real-time global sales visibility and reduced material waste with Qlik

SML Group gains real-time sales data Qlik streamlines materials management

SML Group, a Hong Kong–based manufacturing and global branding and retail solutions provider with production sites and sales networks in over 30 countries, needed to consolidate disparate data sources to produce timely, reliable reports that support operations and management.

By deploying Qlik Sense GeoAnalytics to monitor raw materials (levels, age and condition) across sites and a QlikView sales-performance dashboard for a single global sales view, SML automated reporting and streamlined analysis. The changes improved materials efficiency and reduced waste—lowering costs and environmental impact—and enabled faster, more accurate sales forecasting by comparing budgets to actual performance.
