Solution	Schenker deployed QlikView to approximately 750 users across three functions in Europe. The functions included Supply Chain Analysis, Financial Analysis, and Six Sigma Analysis. For Supply Chain Analysis, QlikView was used to track and report on the status, location, and timing of shipments striving to improve on-time delivery. It also tracked container loads to ensure moving at capacity and minimizing fuel and environmental costs. For Financial Analysis, QlikView was used to track cash flow indicators for elapsed order-to-invoice time to monitor cost efficiency levels. For Six Sigma Analysis, QlikView acted as a check and balance on shipment data tracked in its in-house tracking system. It drilled into shipment data to find out where and why delays occurred to identify areas for process improvement. The implementation was rapid, taking place in a matter of weeks. Schenker leveraged QlikView Server (64-bit) and Publisher to aggregate data from a suite of systems, including Navision, Excel, and an in-house tracking system on IBM System i (AS/400).
