Case Study: Celestica achieves viral company-wide BI adoption and millions in savings with Sisense

Celestica Sees Viral Adoption of Bi Due to Sisense's Ease-of-Use and no Learning Curve

Celestica is a Toronto-based multinational electronics manufacturing services (EMS) company with more than 40 sites in 11 countries handling roughly $500–600 billion in goods. The company needed fast, reliable forecasting and demand-planning across 12–16 months of historical data, but their analysis was hampered by disparate, oversized datasets in Excel/SAP, an IT bottleneck for BI requests, and a desire to offer white‑labeled, embedded analytics to customers.

Celestica deployed Sisense, an easy-to-use BI platform that rolled out in days and required no training, which led to viral adoption across the business. The platform empowered users to build dashboards, increased reporting from about 300 to 5,000 datasets per week, saved weeks of work per report, enabled fully branded customer-facing analytics, and has driven millions in potential savings from improved supply-and-demand decisions.
