Pricing based on a digital supply chain

Based on relevant data sources, the PTA develops ETL/ELT processes to link data from systems whose integration has proved difficult in the past. Through the use of Teradata Aster's analytics functions (e.g. IdentityMatch), it is possible to match locations from different source systems using 'fuzzy matching' methods. With the help of various string metrics, locations can be reliably identified on the basis of their geodata (addresses and geocoordinates), thus enabling the linking of previously decoupled sub-processes of the value chain. In addition, the PTA determines relevant KPIs along the supply chain for a predefined period of time based on the existing data warehouse (Teradata). Through the design and development of tableau dashboards, the KPIs are made available to the specialist department in a descriptive manner, thus effectively supporting the customer in pricing.
