CHALLENGE
Collaborate better, integrate better, and sell more
Catalyst Cloud, a UK-based software development and consulting specialist, was born out of a passion to place information where it delivers real value and boasts decades of extensive experience in Qlik.
APPROACH
Managing thousands of suppliers and millions of SKUs
Catalyst Cloud harnessed Qlik to develop Coeus Supplier Experience Portal (SEP), a white-labelled, web-based platform with Qlik at its core, designed to give Travis Perkins the supplier information it needed in near real-time.
For Travis Perkins, having a bespoke, customizable solution allowed a broad spectrum of end-users and suppliers to access the power of Qlik analytics and data-driven collaboration without having to become familiar with Qlik itself. Catalyst Cloud then realized that Coeus SEP could easily apply to other similar businesses.
RESULTS
Enabling data-driven growth
Stock availability can be optimized, merchandising and discounting can be managed more effectively, and production and distribution can be forecast more accurately to better align with demand. The ability to monetize supply-chain data also represents a new revenue stream.
