Business Challenges

Their global eCommerce team to maximize the sales potential of online platforms and gain a competitive advantage. However, data silos, data incompatibility and over-dependence on historic data limited the visibility into planning and reporting, thereby impacting sales over eCommerce platforms.

Sigmoid Solution

Sigmoid created a data hub powered with advanced analytics, data processing and visualization capabilities to leverage eCommerce channel data and maximize sales opportunities. Large volume of data from multiple internal and external sources were harmonized together in real-time.

The smart dashboards with report load time of < 3 seconds enhanced visibility by switching seamlessly between weekly and monthly views. Custom models were designed to streamline intensive analysis and forecasting.
