Case Study: Furninova achieves 90% faster reporting and improved profitability with Qlik (QlikView)

Well informed decisions with QlikView the key to success in the furnishing industry for Furninova

Furninova is a Sweden‑based manufacturer of indoor furniture (sofas, couches, armchairs) with €43M in annual sales and operations in Poland and Europe/Asia. After deploying a new manufacturing planning system that lacked robust sales and statistical reporting, CFO Magnus Ranebo needed an easy‑to‑use business intelligence tool that could pull data from multiple systems and deliver fast, on‑the‑fly analysis to sales, operations and finance.

Furninova implemented QlikView across four functions (25 users), integrating data from the MPS, Interbase and Excel into a single dashboard. The solution cut reporting time by 90% (from weeks to hours), reduced manufacturing and production costs, revealed least‑profitable products so production could be adjusted, and removed the analysis bottleneck by empowering staff with self‑service reporting.
