Steven Forster , Supply Management Specialist, Defense Logistics Agency
After graduating with a Digital Communications degree from Lebanon Valley College in 2005 there weren't many opportunities to utilize my education in central PA. I picked up the only job available at the time in the automotive service industry, which lead to working as an associate at Amazon which transitioned into becoming a forklift driver for Arnold Logistics. An opportunity presented itself to join Defense Logistics Agency as a Material Handler which I gladly took. Working in the warehouse isn't where I wanted to be but I knew it's what I had to do to get to where I wanted to be. Working my way through different promotions I left DLA for a position with the United States Army Security Assistance Command where I gained much of my experience in BI and analytics with a Tableau Certification and acquired my lean Six Sigma Black Belt Certification from the Army Material Command in 2011. Being presented with an opportunity to return to DLA in 2015 I was able to acquire my MOST certification for Engineered labor standards as a part of the Business and Technology team in J4. In 2016 I was able to join our Operations and Workload Team where I was earned Qlik Certifications in Advanced Geo Analytics Development, Data Analytics, Data Literacy, Advanced-Data Modeling, and Advanced interface Design which allowed me to develop operational business intelligence applications for the DLA Distribution Enterprise. Some of these applications include our customer order fulfillment performance to all service members, support to the COVID strategic missions for the USNS Mercy and Comfort, Covid Vaccine Operations, Covid Test Kit Mission as well as several others.
The utilization of new capabilities has enabled DLA to advance our mission through the development of understandable and actionable ways Senior Leaders can make decisions and drive change in the organization. We’ve been able to increase the quality and speed of our management decisions, communications, and team productivity.

Besides the fact that Qlik Sense has been on the market for almost a decade now and Qlik SaaS has become the new shiny platform going way beyond the scope of data visualization, there is still a large share of customers running QlikView installations. Since these customers are always at risk for discontinuing Qlik, the question of how to move them successfully to Qlik Sense and Qlik SaaS is of utmost importance for the medium- and long-term commercial success of Qlik. By the example of a Managed Tax Analytics solution Deloitte operates for a large international consumer goods producer and retailer, this session will provide insights on: 1) How external shock Events like Brexit or COVID create windows of opportunity for change beyond the pure necessary 2) How internal dynamics and operating modes of Qlik partners can make them agents of change or stagnation 3) The crucial relevance of the Qlik technology partners to face the massive competition from more significant BI vendors.

That migration occurred about 1 year ago and its success has increased transparency, stability, and reliability of data refreshes. It also provided a faster, more responsive experience for users, and expanded self-service capabilities. UCB has used the insight gathered from the success of the migration to further strategize on how they would migrate additional data systems into their Azure environment.

ABB, a global technology provider that specializes in electrification, robotics, and motion solutions needed to build a solid sustainable strategy to increase productivity. ABB's SAP systems were crucial to operations, however, extracting insights from the data became inefficient. As a leading automation authority, they knew their analytics pipelines had to change to uberize enterprise decision-making with timely access to real-time global data. The combination of Qlik’s Data Integration Platform feeding Snowflake’s modern data cloud with SAP and other data sources is unlocking the hidden value of data at scale, helping create deeper insights faster.

Easy accessible data, executive management reporting and a large userbase on Qlik Sense – all this is the result of years of tuning by the Procurement Controlling department of Siemens Smart Infrastructure. Starting at a diverse tool environment, the efforts to create a monthly report cost the department an immense amount of precious working time. Different interfaces and passwords, not user friendly masks and lack of standardization was the battles the users had to face every month with high manual effort.
All this manual labor was transformed step by step by automatizing the data collection, integrating Qlik Sense, training the users and establishing a guided analytics dashboard with a state of the art functionality. Supported by the SI IT DataMart the data resides in a secured cloud environment powered by automatized data access and complex data models in the background. The results are solid. Siemens realizes four key criteria with their units dashboards:
• Their ease of use by standardization and a single source of truth as well as a connection of multiple sources
• High user acceptance through high quality information, trust in the app and data preparation and time saving for all users
• Efficiency through automatic updates, and single point of entry to all applications
• Cost: No time loss for adapting to different tool user interfaces, saving time to focus on operational tasks to generate business value.
All of this, the Journey and the end result will be shared in this breakout session, a guided and gripping development with the best in class use case to take away.
