Consumers want paints that never drip and that dry quickly. Borchers Americas Inc., a leading additives specialist for coatings, paints, and printing inks, develops technology that improves the durability, consistency, and drying time of colorants and coatings. Its customers include some of the largest paint companies in the world. With rapid growth, however, Borchers found it more difficult to gain a unified view of operations and planning across its global business. By deploying the SAP® Analytics Cloud solution on SAP Cloud Platform, Borchers consolidated data from diverse operational units into a single business intelligence reporting platform. Now users can access trusted data in real time, even from sales reps’ mobile devices – improving decision-making, guiding product development, and helping customers select the right drying additives.
