Challenges: Disconnected Data, Slow Reports, and Limited Supply Chain Visibility
Motherson, a global leader in automotive components and solutions boasting an annual revenue of $12 billion, faced several difficulties in transforming data from multiple sources into a unified format, meeting diverse departmental reporting needs. Scattered dashboards led to inefficiencies, while limited real-time supply chain visibility hindered proactive decision-making and demand planning.
Solutions: Unified Decision Intelligence with Athena

Athena AI
| Before ConverSight | After ConverSight |
|---|---|
| Disconnected data from ERP, logistics, and finance created reporting silos | Athena unified multiple data sources, providing a single source of truth |
| Reporting processes were manual, slow, and IT-dependent | Real-time dashboards and self-service reports enabled faster, more accessible insights |
| Limited visibility into supply chain hindered timely decision-making | Proactive alerts and recommendations enabled faster, informed actions across teams |
| Cross-functional teams operated with fragmented information and misaligned workflows | Centralized dashboards streamlined collaboration across procurement, logistics, and suppliers |
Before Athena, our on-premises data analytics lacked flexibility, required heavy maintenance and made data access difficult. Moving to the cloud seemed like a million-dollar, year-long project. With Athena AI, we delivered our first use case in under three months.
