The upgrade project stems from the goal of Kirjavälitys to improve the end-user reporting experience and reorganize the support function for its existing on-premise data warehouse technology
Kirjavälitys Oy is a service company owned by Finnish publishers and bookstores. It produces logistics services, procurement services and digital services for the book industry. The customers of Kirjavälitys include publishers, bookstores, online stores, retailers, schools, libraries, clubs, printing companies and producers of marketing materials.
The years-long co-operation between Invenco (now part of Innofactor) and Kirjavälitys is deepening as Invenco's experts help Kirjavälitys develop its reporting to better respond to its current needs and, in particular, future needs.
The development effort is aimed at reorganizing the support for the company's existing on-premise data warehouse function and improving the end-user reporting experience with the help of Power BI. This supports Kirjavälitys' business development.
All of Kirjavälitys' business areas – logistics services, book procurement services and digital services – have developed favorably as of late. The company's logistics center in Hyvinkää has been expanded in response to the growing volumes.
Kirjavälitys plays a key role in promoting the digitalization of the book industry. The services of Kirjavälitys cover the distribution of all book formats: logistics for both printed and electronic content. Kirjavälitys invests in data management, the use of automation and the continuous development of online services.
"Expanding the co-operation comes naturally, as we have been working with Invenco for several years, and Invenco's professionals have earned our trust," says Eija Weck, IT Director at Kirjavälitys.
