The Challenge

The client operated more than 120 supermarket outlets with data scattered across BIZOM, SAP, POS, warehouse, and employee systems, blocking any holistic view of the business. Syncing BIZOM and SAP posed major technical hurdles due to differing data structures, while direct API calls were degrading BI report performance. Near real-time updates were essential for agile retail decisions, yet the team also had to balance comprehensive integration with cost optimization in Azure Data Factory. Add complex data mapping, parallel dashboard development, and automation needs, and the path forward demanded a robust, scalable solution.

The Challenge

Our Solution

Innovatics designed an Azure-based integration pipeline that seamlessly moved primary orders from BIZOM to SAP and primary invoices from SAP to BIZOM, powered by Azure Data Factory and Azure SQL Database. Over 40 specialized pipelines were developed for targeted data retrieval, supported by detailed dimensional modeling for comprehensive reporting. A 30-minute extraction schedule delivered near real-time updates, while a robust logging mechanism enabled quick issue resolution. Close collaboration with BIZOM and SAP teams ensured clean data mappings, and Power BI dashboards layered actionable insights on top of the unified foundation.

The Dashboard in Action

The Power BI dashboard suite gives the client a unified command center across retail operations. Order Tracker views surface reporting summaries, call summaries, productivity ratios, and coverage metrics in real time, while user-level analytics highlight individual performance, attendance, and sales activity. Category, subcategory, and variant-wise sales visualizations help merchandising, and category teams identify top performers and optimize the product mix. Order versus fulfillment comparisons expose bottlenecks instantly, empowering managers to act on issues the moment they emerge and keep every outlet running at peak efficiency.

The Dashboard in Action

The deeper return

Innovatics transformed fragmented retail systems into a unified data and BI engine that drives faster decisions, sharper operations, and sustained competitive advantage.
