Lawson Opportunity Analyzer is a business modeling tool designed to help companies analyze the financial and operative effects of various business scenarios. IKEA Components developed its business strategy and identified its Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). It then conducted continuous measurement of these KPIs.
IKEA Components was then able to use the information gained through tracking these KPIs to help it enhance customer service and improve profitability. Specifically, the company reports an improvement in product availability, a reduction in customer complaints and a reduction in time required to process orders. In addition, IKEA Components reports reductions in the time required to produce inventories and order execution costs.
The recently published Gartner Inc. report "IKEA Components Achieves Success in Leveraging Technology to Evaluate Strategy and Manage Its Execution" by John E. Van Decker; dated March 12, 2008 evaluated Lawson's role at IKEA Components, a subsidiary of the IKEA Group.
