Client/project profile
Background
A large tobacco company in the U.S. was dependent on a small HR analytics team to handle requests for all HR-related reports and
dashboards. The reporting process was highly specialized and utilized sophisticated Excel spreadsheets that were maintained by the
core analytics team.
