Japfa enhances food production decisions with Qlik's technology

Agri-food company Japfa is harnessing Qlik Sense^® and Qlik Data Integration^® to support its mission of delivering safe, nutritious and traceable protein foods across Asian markets including Indonesia, Vietnam, Myanmar, India and Bangladesh, Qlik® announced on December 12.

Japfa leverages Qlik to transform raw data into actionable insights, directly impacting poultry production decisions such as feed optimisation and growth tracking. Integrating Qlik with Japfa's Information Management System (JIMS) eliminates data inconsistencies, thereby boosting cross-departmental cooperation and enabling a unified approach to data-driven decision making.

Japfa's adoption of Qlik illustrates a forward-thinking approach in a rapidly growing market, according to Qlik. The latter addresses the challenges posed by Japfa's expanding data requirements, transcending previous limitations of basic analytics tools.

Japfa's journey with Qlik began with the adoption of QlikView, marking a shift from manual reporting to dynamic, insightful visualisations. This advancement provided the company's teams with clear, regular insights from extensive data sources, significantly accelerating crucial operational decisions in feed and livestock production.

To scale those insights further, Japfa, in partnership with SIFT Analytics, expanded its data analytics capabilities. By integrating Qlik Data Integration, Qlik Sense and cloud services such as Snowflake, Japfa created a robust system in JIMS, streamlining data collection and analysis.

Qlik Replicate's synergy with Snowflake has been pivotal in developing Japfa's automated data processing, making information accessible and actionable. This approach, supported by Qlik Sense's intuitive visualisations, enabled the company to shift from labor-intensive monthly reporting to streamlined, daily automated insights, marking a significant evolution in Japfa's data management strategy.

"In our quest for efficiency, real-time, cloud-based insights are indispensable. Qlik not only enhances our decision-making processes but also strengthens team collaboration and understanding, propelling us towards intelligent, data-centric operations," said Kwang Chin Eu, chief digitalisation officer at Japfa.

"Our partnership with Japfa is a powerful example of how Qlik's innovative data solutions can empower organisations to achieve their objectives," said Geoff Thomas, senior vice president (Asia Pacific and Japan) at Qlik. "Japfa's commitment to quality, combined with our data-driven insights, is set to redefine feed and livestock operational production decisions in Asia."
