Overview

A $40 billion global chemical company, specializing in plastics and refining, struggled to manage and analyze sales data for key global accounts with Excel-based reporting. The fragmented approach limited their ability to identify growth opportunities and market trends, hindering efforts to strengthen customer relationships and drive revenue growth.

Challenges

The chemical leader aimed to drive revenue growth by optimizing customer relationships. They partnered with Aligned Automation to transform global accounts into strategic assets by centralizing account data and insights, addressing the following challenges: 

  • Fragmented System: Manually tracking data from 15 sources led to inconsistent insights and missed opportunities.
  • Manual Processes: Heavy reliance on Excel spreadsheets, leading to an increased risk of errors, with 15-20% of reports requiring rework due to data inaccuracies causing delays.
  • Limited Visibility: Insufficient insights into sales performance across regions and customer segments.
