Case Study: Peter Appel Transport achieves faster, self-service analytics with Tableau Software

Peter Appel Transport Data analysis, made simple with Tableau

Peter Appel Transport, a Dutch specialist in temperature‑controlled logistics, was hampered by slow, cumbersome reporting using Excel and Access—producing single, static insights that left analysts and customers unsatisfied. Business analyst Gert‑Jan Neeft found the old process time‑consuming and dependent on others, limiting the company’s ability to explore and act on data quickly.

After adopting Tableau, the team moved to self‑service analytics with drag‑and‑drop dashboards, easy sharing and rapid report creation (Gert‑Jan built his first report on day two). The switch delivered faster, more enjoyable analysis, empowered users to interact with data in real time, and produced clearer, actionable insights across the organization.
