Case history

One finance workflow at Monte Xanic now takes about 97 percent less time.

About an hour of assembly by hand, now about two minutes, refreshed through the day. The harvest behind it reads in one live view.

Built to hold water

Outcome
About an hour of finance work, now about two minutes, refreshed through the day

BasisThe hour was timed by hand before the build; the two minutes are the dashboard's refresh, and the view is refreshed through the day; about 97 percent is the distance between them. No Monte Xanic production, sales or financial figure appears here.

Before

The harvest lived in three places and agreed in none.

Monte Xanic makes wine in the Valle de Guadalupe, and is meticulous about what goes in the bottle. The harvest behind it deserves the same clarity.

The numbers sat in a production system, in Excel files, and in paper notebooks out in the rows. Seeing the whole harvest meant gathering all three by hand, and by then the picture was old. A picking decision turns on a day or two.

What changed

One live view, and every number stands on its own section.

The three sources feed a view that updates itself, bound to the real sections of the vineyard. Ripeness is scored against the winery's own standard, so a section is seen coming due.

Berry to bottle

One thread from vine to finished bottle.

Every stage sits on the same thread, so an adjustment lands in season, while it still changes the wine.
