Based on my previous experience in the Warehousing and distribution sector, various distribution companies’ top management is faced with the challenge of visibility and data literacy. They handle a substantial amount of data yet turning this raw data into informative insights proves to be a challenge mainly because of the lack of designated roles in handling of the said data. Various analysis practices are assigned to department managers i.e Sales analysis is given to the sales manager, inventory analysis is assigned to depot managers e.t.c
But what if there were designated personnel to decentralize and analyze the data on behalf of the department heads, while also providing already filtered reports and recommendations to the managers…this would ultimately free up the time used by the management on data sourcing and analysis by the managers, paving way for them to partake in providing insightful solutions and trend analysis. Also, the data role increases the information flow to the business owners and the managers by providing more real-time reports i.e. reports that were previously presented on a monthly basis can be provided on a weekly basis.
