Qlik® a global leader in data integration, data quality, analytics, and artificial intelligence, has recently announced that Nissin Food Holdings (Nissin), a leading global food industry company, has implemented Qlik as a core component of its newly developed data integration and analytics platform. This solution now enables the company to leverage real-time data from its enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, integrated with Snowflake, for smarter and faster decision-making.
Nissin is focused on building a data-driven management platform to improve operations across the company. Prior to Qlik’s introduction, data from its SAP-based core system was fragmented across multiple platforms, making it difficult to establish a unified solution. Additionally, data was updated manually once a day which meant the company lacked real-time data, hampering decision-making and adding operational burdens.
With the adoption of Qlik, Nissin gained the ability to access the most up-to-date data, with real-time data integration directly linked to Snowflake. This eliminated the need for manual data downloads, vastly improving data utilization and speeding up decision-making processes.
In the logistics and sales departments, AI-powered automation has made it possible to track critical data, such as shipments and sales, and alert staff of anomalies and other decision-critical information in real time. Qlik is expected to help Nissin Foods Group to operate more efficiently across its various business domains.
According to Toshihiro Narita, Executive Officer and CIO (Group Information Officer) of Nissin Foods Holdings, Nissin is committed to building a data-driven culture without relying too much on the strength of its brand. The goal is to make Nissin a company that thinks, communicates and makes decisions based on data. Integrating its ERP system into a single data platform is essential, and Qlik offers the game-changer solution.
