"Hydr8 framework really enabled us to go fast. Before bringing in Advancing Analytics to help us integrate, ingest, and expose this data there were over 1500 unique reports taking 10 hours of process time every single day. Hydr8 and Databricks enabled us to bring the new [Walmart] data in and build out our ecosystem. It was absolutely worth it. One thing I saw working with Advancing Analytics was their willingness to learn our business. It was not just them building things and checking a box. It was more how do we understand it better so that we can deliver a better product for you."

Challenge:
Hershey was challenged with a complex data landscape, where disparate and disconnected data sources led to labour-intensive semi-automated reporting, that fractured their view of commercial performance.
This fragmented landscape hindered agile decision-making across their supply chain, limiting their ability to respond swiftly to market changes and shifts in consumer behaviour.
Solution:
Advancing Analytics partnered with Hershey to deploy our proprietary Hydr8 accelerator and rapidly scale a modern, agile Data Lakehouse on Databricks.
By unifying sales, inventory, and planning data into a single source of truth, we built centralised models and KPIs that enabled rapid analytical modelling and delivered actionable insights across the enterprise.
Impact:
Hershey unlocked over $100M in value across sales, category management, and supply chain with our agile Data Lakehouse solution. Hydr8 seamlessly integrated Walmart’s Scintilla Data Platform with 25 cross-functional teams, streamlining retailer and third-party data to boost operational efficiency and secure a lasting competitive edge.

Challenge:
Sunbelt Rentals faced a critical operational bottleneck: their manual, short-term demand and utilisation forecasting was limited to only a few days. This made it difficult to accurately predict depot stock levels, leading to frequent mismatches that either left essential assets depleted or resulted in costly overstocking.
The fragmented approach hindered the seamless flow across supply chain, purchasing, rentals, delivery, and repairs—undermining responsiveness in a highly competitive market.
Solution:
Advancing Analytics partnered with Sunbelt Rentals to architect a cloud-native unified analytics platform.
Leveraging our proprietary Hydr8 accelerator built on Azure Databricks, we streamlined the onboarding of diverse datasets while developing sophisticated forecasting algorithms that dynamically factor in seasonality, locality, weather, trends, and asset popularity.
This culminated in a scalable machine-learning model capable of predicting equipment demand with 90% accuracy.
Impact:
The implementation has transformed operational agility. With enhanced forecasting capabilities, Sunbelt Rentals achieved a 50% improvement in prediction performance, enabling more precise inventory control and effective marketing initiative decisions.
This proactive approach minimizes the risks of stock losses and shortages, driving commercial growth and ensuring that the right assets are available at the right time.
