HAVELSAN, one of the leading military technology firms in Turkey, chose TURBOARD to drive operational excellence. Every year since, the work has grown to cover more of the company’s data needs.
HAVELSAN started seeking a business intelligence solution that would fuse their data and provide new levels of insights.
HAVELSAN heard compliments about TURBOARD’s reporting and analytics capabilities at one of their business meetings with the Turkish Ministry of Health, a client of TURBOARD as well. Therefore, they decided to contact TURBOARD to explore how they can use their data to make better strategic decisions and improve day-to-day operations.
Founded in 1982, HAVELSAN with its deep-rooted experience has been providing high technology and software-intensive solutions to the Turkish Armed Forces, public and private entities, and many other international customers, currently serving them through a team of 2,200+ highly competent professionals.
HAVELSAN is using SAP ERP to run and manage its various business units, a CRM software to manage interactions with their customers, and a PPM system for projects’ management, an HR software, and an issue tracking/ticketing software. Additionally, some of their financial data are imported and saved in Excel files.
With their operational data accumulating from the different departments and business units, it is no longer enough to process the data using the traditional ways and access it from multiple systems for business operations.
Since adopting TURBOARD, HAVELSAN has been able to:
TURBOARD integrated all HAVELSAN data from its different data sources, and brought it into a centralized, unified reporting platform, with easy-to-use dashboards and smart visualizations. Phase 1 of this project took only 21 days to complete, during which TURBOARD achieved to come up with a showcase that impressed the General Manager in such a short time.
Each week, executive board members take the pulse of operations and financials via GM’s presentation on “Kokpit”, TURBOARD’s white-labeled dashboards in HAVELSAN.
Each year since, TURBOARD has taken on more of HAVELSAN’s data needs. At a TURBOARD hackathon held at HAVELSAN, many teams competed to build the best solution on their own data, and General Manager Dr. Mehmet Akif Nacar presented the winners’ prize.
The latest step is generative AI: people across HAVELSAN now ask their questions to JAS.
HAVELSAN has moved into generative AI with JAS, TURBOARD’s BI-native AI assistant. People across the company ask questions in plain language, and she answers from the reports, definitions and permissions already in TURBOARD.
