To make all this work, Whitworths business analyst Jason Simpson says that a complex global supply chain needs to be properly organized and run: That would entail cost if done so on-premise, so he initiated a move to general Whitworths' use of Qlik Cloud. This, he said, has not only reduced the cost of the adoption, but also ensured what he sees as a constant set of innovations to functionality, as upgrades get done automatically by the vendor at its end.

This was seen as a problem at senior management level, as they often struggled to get timely visualization of trends in the business. Outputs of data from the ERP were in a text form that line of business managers then had to manipulate themselves in Excel.

Waste has also been reduced by a factor of four, he added. The company also likes the way it can add in extra information from partners into the core ERP system that Simpson says was not previously possible. Add the dried country vegetables to the boiling water, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Take raisins; there are different seasons, depending on which side of the hemisphere you're looking at, so there's a time element. And then there's a market element - who has the best pricing and product right now. Plus you get different grades of raisins. To fix this, a decision was taken to widen usage of BI and data visualization within the company. Simpson was recruited 18 months ago from the financial services sector to lead the roll-out:
