Kramp accelerates data-driven decision making with PowerKPIs, WriteBackExtreme, and SuperTables.
The challenge
It’s that easy,
Kramp, Europe’s leading specialist in agricultural parts, continuously strives to enhance efficiency and data-driven decision-making. With a vast international presence and a complex operational structure, the need for clear, scalable performance tracking and real-time data input became paramount.
To address this challenge, Kramp implemented PowerKPIs, WriteBackExtreme, and SuperTables—three powerful solutions that provide immediate access to key performance indicators (KPIs), enable seamless data updates, and offer flexible, Excel-like table functionalities within dashboards.

A Cockpit for Instant Insights with PowerKPIs
Before PowerKPIs, monitoring key business metrics across multiple teams and regions required extensive manual effort. Kramp needed a solution that would allow leadership and managers to quickly assess performance without navigating through multiple reports. The implementation of PowerKPIs introduced a centralized cockpit, providing a single view of the most critical numbers at a glance.
With PowerKPIs, users can instantly see high-level business performance, including revenue trends, operational efficiency, and customer engagement metrics. This scalable and streamlined approach eliminates unnecessary complexity and ensures that teams focus on what truly matters. Beyond the initial dashboard, PowerKPIs empowers Kramp users to drill into detailed KPIs, uncovering insights that drive informed decision-making.
WriteBackExtreme: Taking Action Within the Dashboard
While PowerKPIs provides valuable insights, Kramp needed a way to take immediate action on these insights without switching between different tools. WriteBackExtreme was the perfect solution, allowing users to input and modify data directly within dashboards. With WriteBackExtreme, country managers and account managers can adjust forecasts, update sales targets, and refine budgets in real time, ensuring that insights lead to action.
SuperTables: Empowering Users with Flexible, Excel-Like Tables
To further enhance data interaction, Kramp integrated SuperTables into its Tableau environment. SuperTables provides users with an Excel-like experience, allowing them to sort, filter, pivot, and manipulate data in a familiar, flexible format. This functionality enables account managers, analysts, and leadership to explore complex datasets effortlessly without relying on static reports.
With SuperTables, Kramp users can:
- Perform advanced filtering and sorting without requiring additional dashboard modifications.
- Pivot data dynamically to uncover new insights.
- Export data easily for further offline analysis when needed.
By integrating SuperTables, Kramp ensures that users can interact with their data in a way that feels natural, improving efficiency and enhancing decision-making capabilities.
Seamless Integration for Scalable Growth
PowerKPIs, WriteBackExtreme, and SuperTables seamlessly connect to Kramp’s existing business intelligence dashboards, ensuring a smooth transition from KPI exploration to in-depth analysis, action, and advanced data manipulation. Once a user identifies a critical area for review, they can not only analyze it but also make necessary updates and explore data in a structured, flexible format without leaving the dashboard environment. This level of integration enhances Kramp’s ability to make data-driven decisions efficiently and effectively.
As Kramp continues to expand, scalability remains a key priority. PowerKPIs, WriteBackExtreme, and SuperTables offer flexible and scalable solutions that grow with the business. New metrics, data entry points, and interactive table capabilities can be incorporated without disrupting existing workflows, ensuring that Kramp stays ahead of evolving business needs.
Conclusion
By leveraging PowerKPIs, WriteBackExtreme, and SuperTables, Kramp has transformed its approach to performance monitoring, data interaction, and business decision-making. The combination of a centralized cockpit, detailed KPI exploration, real-time data updates, and flexible, Excel-like table functionalities has empowered the company to make faster, more informed decisions. As a result, Kramp has enhanced operational efficiency, improved responsiveness, and reinforced its commitment to data-driven excellence.
