Case Study: Volvo Group achieves faster, trusted data-driven decisions and collaboration with Qlik

Volvo Group’s Journey to Data Adoption and Collaboration with Qlik

Volvo Group, a global manufacturer of trucks, buses and construction equipment, faced a complex spare-parts and service logistics challenge compounded by slow, error-prone Excel workflows and siloed teams. Analysts spent most of their time hunting and preparing data rather than interpreting it, which delayed decisions, hid quality issues and limited collaboration across thousands of suppliers and millions of vehicles in the field.

Volvo’s finance leaders drove an organic rollout of Qlik (QlikView and Qlik Sense), replacing manual work with self-service dashboards and automated data-gathering. The change freed analysts to focus on insight and cross-team collaboration, sped decision-making, cut after-hours work, enabled automation and upskilling, and improved data trust, employee engagement and operational responsiveness.
