Overview

Bel Cheese, a global food manufacturer, wanted to centralize data from multiple systems and create a real-time dashboard for production, logistics, finance, and marketing.

Challenge

Bel operated in 40+ countries with fragmented systems:

• SAP for finance
  
• Excel-based production files
  
• Distribution spreadsheets
  
• Manual sales reports
  
• No unified data dashboard
  
• Slow reporting delays
  

Data was siloed, outdated, and inconsistent.
