Client overview
Siemens Smart Infrastructure, headquartered in Zug, Switzerland, specializes in developing intelligent and adaptable infrastructures. The company addresses challenges such as urbanization and climate change by connecting energy systems, buildings, and industries.
With a comprehensive portfolio, Siemens offers solutions and services from energy generation to consumption, positioning itself as a leading provider of innovative infrastructure technologies.
The challenge
The Procurement department of Siemens Smart Infrastructure already had experience with modern BI tools and used various Qlik tools. While QlikView was used for data visualization and served its purpose, it did not meet the requirements of the procurement strategy, which demanded personalized visualizations for targeted and efficient data analysis. Therefore, the department sought a new, future-oriented solution.
The solution
Nicolas Michel, Product Manager, Siemens
The HICO-Group implemented a future-oriented BI solution for Siemens Procurement based on Qlik Sense®. To meet the specific requirements of the procurement strategy, the extensions TRUECHART and MENUBAR developed by the HICO-Group
were used. TRUECHART enables IBCS®-compliant visualizations and offers extensive commenting functions that facilitate guided data analysis. This is complemented by the MENUBAR, a customizable menu bar that extends Qlik Sense® with
intuitive navigation and automation options. Together, these tools significantly simplify data visualization and increase the efficiency of procurement processes.
The outcome
