Darwin Optimized Business Operations at Latina and Boosted Data-Driven Decision-Making

About the client

Latina, a B2B leader in data analytics, faced time-consuming and inefficient reporting processes that hindered decision-making across crucial departments. Partnering with Darwin, Latina implemented Tableau for advanced visualization, automated synchronization, and tailored reporting solutions. These changes revolutionized their operational efficiency, cutting report load times from 10+ minutes to under 20 seconds and empowering their teams with real-time, actionable insights.

Introduction

Mission
Latina operates in the B2B data analytics sector, providing businesses with tools to analyze and leverage big data for strategic decision-making. Known for their expertise, Latina's clients rely on their ability to process vast amounts of information efficiently. However, as their clientele and database grew, so did the complexity of their internal reporting and decision-making processes. 
Problem Overview
To maintain their competitive edge, Latina needed a scalable solution that streamlined reporting workflows, optimized data synchronization, and empowered their teams with critical insights.

The Problem

Key issues

Manual Reporting Challenges

Latina's legacy system for generating reports was cumbersome, often burdened by slow load times of over 10 minutes per report. This inefficiency consumed valuable time for departments like Accounting, Purchasing, and Executive Leadership, leaving them without instant access to business-critical updates. 

Lack of Real-Time Data Access

With reports being updated manually or at irregular intervals, key departments often operated with outdated information. This lag in data updates impacted the accuracy of decisions, particularly in high-stakes scenarios like budget allocation and procurement planning.

Fragmented Reporting for Departments

Departments such as Accounting and Purchasing lacked tailored reporting tools that addressed their specific needs. For instance, the Accounting team had difficulty tracking profitability efficiently, while the Purchasing Department struggled with outdated metrics delaying procurement strategies.

The Solution

Latina collaborated with Darwin to deploy a robust, comprehensive solution using Tableau, a market leader in data visualization, to overcome their challenges and achieve operational transformation.
