GCP solution to pave the way for data-driven transformation
Alquería – The data-driven transformation
Alquería is a Colombian Corporate Group of the Food and Beverage industry in the dairy sector. It is recognized as the leading brand in Top of Mind and Top of Heart in the milk segment. With 62 years in the market and 23% of Market Share.
Alquería, with its specialized team and the expert support of Amarello, implemented in GCP a data solution to pave the way for data-driven transformation, improving processing times and enabling predictive scenarios.
The challenge
Improve the processes and delivery time of reports that the business needs to have available, complete and correct at the beginning of each day of operation. The solution was implemented on a legacy data platform in an on-premise environment and needed to think about a new cloud-based solution with better data processing capabilities.
The solution
The modernization of the Data Warehouse occurred hand in hand with technologies such as BigQuery and Data Fusion, being a secure, scalable solution with more processing capacity. By using the AI Platform, data scientists have tools that allow them to experiment and create analytical models with flexibility and first-hand access to business information.
The results
Improved report processing times for the commercial area by a factor of 100X. First analytical model for sales forecasting based on Machine Learning. Savings in the use of BI tool licenses, which allowed us to expand the user base that benefits from the reports, paving the way for the democratization of data.
“The first step on our path to becoming a Data Driven Company was to democratize access to information in a secure, reliable and flexible way, with Google Cloud we now have new capabilities to model future scenarios that allow us to make better decisions seeking to strengthen our partnerships with suppliers and continue to gain the preference of our customers.”
