The challenge

Where they started

The team manually compiled sales and inventory numbers from four channels into spreadsheets every week, a process that took more than a day and was always slightly out of date.

Stockouts and overselling were hard to catch because no one had a current, consolidated view of inventory.

Our approach

How we worked through it

A practical process designed to create value quickly and keep the client in control at every step.

01

Define the metrics

We worked with leadership to identify the numbers that actually drive their buying and operations decisions.

02

Connect the channels

We integrated each sales channel and the inventory system into one continuously updated data layer.

03

Build and automate

We built clear dashboards and automated alerts so issues surface before they become problems.

What we built

  • A live operations dashboard that consolidates sales and inventory across all four channels in real time.
  • Automated low-stock and oversell alerts that notify the team before issues reach customers.
  • Scheduled summary reports that reach leadership automatically, replacing the manual weekly spreadsheet.

The results

  • Roughly 12 hours of manual reporting work eliminated every week.
  • Four sales channels unified into a single, always-current view of the business.
  • Faster, more confident inventory decisions thanks to live data instead of week-old spreadsheets.
We went from spending a full day on spreadsheets to having everything live on one screen. It changed how quickly we can make decisions.
