Culture and tourism · Austria

Before and after
Before
- Analyses stayed inside Qlik and reached only the people who opened them.
- Sensor readings from the library were not in front of the responsible staff.
- Data competence and acceptance of the BI solution varied between user groups.
After
- Reports go out automatically in common formats or are made available for download.
- Temperature and humidity readings reach the responsible staff on a 65-inch screen.
- In an alarm, the fire brigade sees who is on site and who has clocked out.
How it is set up
- Data sources
- QlikView, Qlik Sense
- Recipients
- Responsible staff across around 20 businesses and institutions, the works fire brigade, museum and helpdesk info screens
- Delivery
- Email, Download in the Qlik hub, 65-inch info screens
- Schedule
- Library climate data every half hour; in an alarm, a staff availability report updated every two minutes
Mail & Deploy is the missing link. The targeted presentation of individual analyses in common report formats has improved data competence across all user groups and thus increased user acceptance of the Qlik BI solution.
The problem
The abbey's IT has analysed data for around 20 businesses and institutions in Qlik for over a decade: sales and turnover, temperature and humidity readings, human resources, time stamps, bank balances and real estate. The analyses existed, but they reached only the people who opened them - which limited data competence and acceptance of the BI solution across the different user groups.
Why Mail & Deploy
- Individual analyses are presented in common report formats.
- Reports can be sent automatically or offered for download in the hub.
- Short update intervals support info screens and alarm messages.
- The setup extends the existing QlikView and Qlik Sense environment.
What changed
- Monthly sales and visitor statistics are compared with the previous year.
- Visitor flow and reservation analyses support staff planning.
- Library climate data is evaluated together with visitor flow to protect the historic book collection.
- Planned next steps include cultural events, hydropower and photovoltaic output, district heating and smart meter data.
