Internal reporting
What are your first thoughts when you see these words: Internal reports?
Internal reports in a sense of complex XLS sheets that Product Managers, Category Managers, Brand Managers, and Sales Managers are sending to their Management.
We have been there, and we know that internal reporting is every of below words:
• Mandatory
• Perpetual
• More and more complex
• More and more different reports
• Highly important to top management
• Time-consuming
• This is not my job…

• Benchmarking your specs vs competitors
• Pin2pin your product vs exact competitors product
• Supply chain analyses of my distribution chain
• Display Share analyses of key Retailers' offers (Tier 3 – 360 view)
• Price erosion for flagship models

What is the reliability of the data and therefore the analytics that is compiled from these data?
And even if they do it right, by the time they collect and analyze data – a report is obsolete as the market landscape had changed.
