KPI Management Solution for Montaplast

About the Client

Montaplast is a privately held manufacturer of plastic molding operating within the manufacturing and automotive components space, supplying the automotive industry with a business presence in approximately 15 countries.

The initiative focuses on building a KPI management application to enhance reporting, data visualization, and executive decision-making across the organization, supporting more efficient and informed management practices.

The Challenge

Montaplast relied on Business Objects for reporting but faced limitations:

  • No ERP system in place, data sourced from multiple operational systems
  • Existing data warehouse underutilized
  • Executives accessed reports via tablets, requiring touch-friendly interfaces
  • Lack of organization-wide KPI visibility and actionable insights
  • Visual-only BI reports did not address root business questions

The client required a solution that leveraged BI visualization while enabling deeper business understanding and interactive KPI management.

The Solution: KPI Management Application

App Maisters proposed a KPI management solution that focused on usability, touch-enabled reporting, and actionable insights. The platform allowed executives to view KPIs interactively on tablets, understand business performance, and identify tools to address unmet needs not covered by existing reports.

The solution integrates:

  • Interactive KPI visualizations for cross-functional functions
  • Insights from multiple operational systems and existing data warehouse
  • Tools to identify gaps in current reporting and address business needs

  • Greater executive engagement with business performance data
  • Enhanced ability to analyze root causes behind operational metrics
  • Better alignment of reporting with organizational decision-making needs

Conclusion
