(1888PressRelease) September 29, 2012 - London, May 2012 - In the past, Quorn Foods had been forecasting their sales data using spreadsheets, a process that was becoming more and more laborious and prone to errors. This sparked the search for a solution which would offer them the ability to analyse, forecast and report accurately and efficiently and help them to make faster and more informed business decisions.

After careful consideration of other products, BOARD was selected as their preferred solution thanks to its easy-to-use, programming-free environment that not only offers them fast access to one version of their data, but also the flexibility to extend their use of the product with the future needs of their organisation.
BOARD will reduce their reliance on spreadsheets and also connect and analyse data that they are holding in SAP using the BOARD SAP Connector.

Once the initial phase of the project is completed, Quorn Foods hope to extend their use of BOARD into promotional management workflow and consolidation.

Martin Lofnes, Finance Director at Quorn Foods comments: " We chose the Board product to enable us to produce regular and up to date forecasts to allow the business to respond quickly to issues and opportunities. It also provides an integrated forecasting and reporting tool. We believe Board will allow enable us to improve the speed and efficiency of decision making and provide a robust database containing 'one version of the truth'."

Dominic Policella, Managing Director of BOARD UK, adds: "We welcome Quorn Foods to the growing list of BOARD customers. It is great to see BOARD helping them to improve their sales forecasting processes and we look forward to seeing them enhance their use of the product".
