Significant savings
helped unlock
Accelerating the delivery of trusted transaction data allows Schneider Electric to iterate models faster than ever.
Near-real time
delivery in vast majority of cases
Extracting millions of daily transactions quickly empowers global teams to close books and respond efficiently.
CHALLENGE
Accelerating intelligence across the enterprise
Schneider Electric relies on deep intelligence to support global electrification and sustainability. With interconnected devices and ERPs deployed across over 100 countries, efficiently gathering actionable data at scale is a top priority.
Legacy ETL tools could only perform incremental extractions if source schemas allowed, leading to bottlenecks. The North America finance team, which operates at the end of the global time zone cycle, experienced delays, and extracting new data objects could take weeks.
APPROACH
Deploying a modern, unrestricted integration layer
Schneider Electric piloted Qlik Replicate to overcome the schema limitations of traditional tools. Because Qlik extracts directly from transaction logs, it allows incremental updates regardless of the underlying schema.
Qlik also provided unique connectors that seamlessly integrate with Schneider Electric’s complex homegrown ERP systems. This deployment successfully simplified the data-extraction landscape, providing a consistent, trusted pipeline that feeds directly into advanced analytics and AI applications.
RESULTS
Driving significant savings through timely data
Powered by these new levels of rapid intelligence, Schneider Electric’s North American pricing team accelerated its modelling to execute adjustments that helped deliver significant savings in just one year, while its supply chain team gained additional operational productivity benefits.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
Unlocking the true value of transactional data
Schneider Electric’s success with Qlik demonstrates the massive financial and operational advantages of overcoming legacy integration bottlenecks. By implementing Qlik Replicate, the organization removed schema-based limitations and simplified its entire data extraction process.
The result is an environment where global teams receive highly accurate, reliable data in near-real time. This level of timeliness not only reduces IT overhead but also helps empower business units to drive significant savings.
Qlik helped us integrate enterprise data into our corporate program, which delivered significant savings within 2025. Accurate, timely, and dependable data is paramount to achieving that kind of milestone.
