Follow on Google News | DrivenBI First to Integrate AutoCAD into Cloud-Native Self-Service Business Intelligence PlatformBy: DrivenBI "We are thrilled to see CAD streamlining data analysis processes," said Rob Maguire, director of the AutoCAD product line. "Quick access to insights will help companies make strategic decisions around resource allocation, innovation and IT investments allowing them to drive greater cost savings and productivity." AutoCAD (http://www.autodesk.com/ "This is the first such integration of this type, and it can have enormous applicability in a variety of markets," said Ben Tai, CEO of DrivenBI. "Integrating BI and AutoCAD can have immeasurable influence on the future of warehousing, material handling, logistics and the science of arranging space." AutoCAD/SRK Use Case The idea to automate sourcing useful data from AutoCAD designs and incorporating it into business analysis came from one of the largest supermarket chain operators in Asia. The supermarket faced the challenge of version control and manual information gathering. Now, with the AutoCAD integration capability of SRK, any changes in designs are instantly available for analysis, reflecting the cost impact in real-time. With instant information access, the supermarket can better plan floor, store and display layout, to streamline shelf stocking and ultimately sell more products. It normally takes the store's team dozens of design revisions and back-and-forth verbal communications, until different departments can finalize a floor plan. Floor managers wanted to focus on designing shelves and stock arrangements rather than doing manual, tedious calculations with spreadsheets. With SRK, they can set up the automated retrieval of shelf dimensions, price, monthly operation fees and more from the AutoCAD designs. As soon as there is a new design, the changes can be quickly extracted and incorporated into analysis to reflect the impact on the overall cost. SRK streamlines design and approval, improves accuracy of data and analysis, and most importantly, allows the team to focus on making timely and smart decisions that will drive their business. With SRK's self-service approach, headquarters can quickly and smartly customize analysis in response to any change in regulations or business without relying on IT.
