Do you know your clients well? Do you dedicate to all the same time equally? Would you sell more if you had more sales reps?
Juan José Colás, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of Lantek
Managers who try to understand and deepen their knowledge of their market ask themselves these questions every day.
In an increasingly hyper-connected world, the metal sector is no exception. Factories face new challenges related to the use of information and access to data; not only manufacturing data but also commercial data.
At Lantek, we are aware that companies do not have fast and precise tools that cover the relationship with clients from preparation of a quote to invoicing an order despite the overwhelming amount of data obtained from the machines and ERPS integrated in plants.
The high number of consultations and orders received by part subcontractors makes it difficult to prioritize and identify recurring clients and those that give us better or worse success ratios in offers while establishing an optimal number of necessary sales reps.
Lantek will soon launch Lantek Customer Analytics, an advanced analytics tool. This business intelligence tool is adapted to the specific needs of the metal sector which feeds from the information generated by the Lantek suite of products while providing integrations with third-party products.
When a company decides to go ahead with the digitization of its processes, it tends to be aiming for greater visibility, traceability and optimization, which generally implies improvements in efficiency and decision-making.
Alberto López de Biñaspre has been Lantek’s new Managing Director since mid-August. Born in Bilbao, over the last 16 years he has led working teams in different countries all over the world. He now wants to apply this experience to Lantek’s continued development.
In today’s world, one of the few sectors which cloud computing has not penetrated on a large scale is in industrial plants. Many companies are still wary of a remote platform which operates from outside their facilities, despite its undeniable success in other economic sectors and the tremendous advantages it offers.
