Overview

Effective data management is a persistent challenge for businesses across industries. For our client, a leading petroleum and petrochemical company in Thailand, the issue was particularly pronounced due to the immense volume of data generated daily. In some instances, for example in our case with the sales team, data collection was relying on manual processes that limited efficiency and scalability.

Manual data entry was both labor-intensive and time-consuming, often leading to errors that resulted in inaccurate quotations. These inefficiencies not only increased operational costs but also posed risks to the client’s ability to manage the growing volume of data effectively. To address these challenges, the client needed a more streamlined and reliable approach to data handling.

Our Approach

To ensure a seamless engagement, our team first focused on understanding the client’s data integration and quotation production processes. This involved analyzing manual operations performed through Excel files and data sourced from existing automation platforms such as SAP and other machine learning systems.

Next, we combined multi-sourced data into an accessible data repository with system integration to ensure that manually inputted data were accurate before being executed and visualized on screen. Our automated data integration pipelines provided notifications when data was ready to be computed or when errors occurred.

Upon entering the data visualization process, our team categorized data by product type to ensure cohesion. After, we organized them into tables to create user-friendly visuals. Designed with the end-user in mind, the platform prioritized delivering the most relevant data insights, ensuring customers were presented with meaningful information upon logging in.
