PRODUCE INDUSTRY

Fresh produce growers, packers, and shippers have been using Dimensional Insight's The Diver Solution™ to manage their operations more efficiently for nearly twenty years. A fully integrated reporting, analytics, and data visualization suite, Diver identifies potential sources of waste and inefficiencies, helps streamline operations, and delivers the right information to key staff members in a timely, role-appropriate manner. Powerful data integration functionality lets users merge disparate data sources from suppliers, shippers, growers, wholesalers, and retailers into a comprehensive view of their supply chain without having to invest in a data warehouse or months of expensive consulting time. Users can perform year-over-year, month-over-month, quarter-over-quarter, year-to-date, and month-to-date comparisons across virtually any financial or operational metric from a simple point and click interface.

Growing Profits with Business Intelligence

Produce growers use Diver's executive dashboards to understand which commodities are currently generating the highest marginal returns, which growers consistently deliver premium quality produce, and which shippers attain the best on-time delivery rates. Growers use Diver's sophisticated analytical capabilities to forecast customer demand patterns with intuitive trend charts and map-based displays of sales data. Yields can be analyzed by growing region, field, product, or time of year. Planners can understand and forecast product demand by retailer, season, price point, or other dimension.

Seasonal demand and weather related data can be incorporated into projected planting calendars to optimize profit and ensure sufficient retail supply. Users can drill down into transactional data directly from Diver dashboards to identify at-risk retailers and develop mitigation strategies to help retain market share. Calendar based views of produce harvesting schedules help managers utilize field workers more effectively. Diver's "what-if" analysis lets analysts dynamically model tradeoffs between seed, fertilizer, fuel, and labor costs to optimize crop yields.
