Case Study: Huawei achieves rapid self-service analytics and up to 80% development cost reduction with Tableau Software

Tableau collaborates with Huawei to Drive Digital Innovations

Huawei, a global leader in information and communication technology operating in more than 170 countries and serving over a third of the world’s population, faced growing demands for faster, data-driven decision-making as its international business expanded. To build a culture of self-service analytics and accelerate digital operations, Huawei partnered with Tableau in 2017 to improve business insight, innovation and operational efficiency.

Tableau’s fast, code-free visual analytics and strong data integration enabled Huawei to democratize analysis across the organization — nearly 3,000 employees use Tableau, over 15,000 people benefit from its dashboards, and hundreds of thousands of reports have been produced. The platform sped up analysis that once required months and large teams to about a week, cut development costs by roughly 70–80%, improved defect and quality-incident detection, and freed resources to focus on higher-value work.
