Servimatic Group

Servimatic is a Catalan company with a long track record in the entertainment and amusement gaming sector. It is mainly specialised in the management, installation and maintenance of amusement and leisure machines for hospitality establishments. The activity of the Servimatic Group is essentially structured around two business areas: the placement of machines in the hospitality sector and the operation of amusement arcades.

Today, the business is managed from several workplaces, with a core presence in Catalonia and additional locations in the Valencian Community and the Balearic Islands.

In a sector where information has to reach every area of the business immediately and with agile connectivity, Servimatic decided to embark on a data-driven digital transformation.

Project Scope

Servimatic approached Holistic with a clear need: to establish a trusted, long-term technology partner capable of responding to any data-related challenge. The objective was cross-cutting: to integrate, organise and transform information in order to improve decision-making in all key departments of the company, as well as to foster a stronger data and analytics culture throughout the organisation.

The collaboration began with an initial engagement focused on developing a Balanced Scorecard for Executive Management and an Economic & Financial Reporting solution. The speed of implementation, the ability to adapt to their needs and the first tangible results generated confidence and an immediate return.

On the back of this positive experience, the scope of work was gradually expanded to include solutions for other key areas such as the sales department, the technical service and workshop, operations and IoT data analytics. The project has evolved naturally, progressively covering more strategic and operational dimensions of the business and positioning Holistic as the reference technology partner within the organisation.

From day one, Holistic has provided functional and technical expertise, a collaborative methodology and a strong ability to adapt to changing needs. The projects have been developed in a progressive and structured way, using Power BI as the main tool for data development and visualisation, while project management, monitoring and communication for each initiative have been handled via ClickUp, avoiding information being scattered across email threads.

Client involvement has been key to the success of the projects: Servimatic formed a project team that included an executive sponsor, a project lead with a global view of the business and a technical profile that greatly facilitated integration and other technology-related aspects.

Project Description

To achieve the digital transformation that Servimatic required, the following solutions were implemented: Balanced Scorecard.

Unlike other solutions focused on specific areas, the challenge here was to obtain a global, cross-cutting view of the activity of the entire company. Servimatic needed a central tool that would allow management to understand, at a glance, the performance of the different departments and business lines, while retaining the ability to drill down into each key indicator.

The solution developed makes it possible, among other things, to:

  • Display, at a first navigation level, the main KPIs for each department: operations, collections, technical service, machines, customers, etc.
  • Drill down to a second and third level of detail to analyse the causes and behaviour of indicators hierarchically.
  • Compare any data against another selectable period quickly and intuitively.
  • Switch the analysis view between monthly and year-to-date (cumulative) with a single click.
  • Analyse and filter data by geography, venue, type of venue, company, branch, sales area and nationality.

This solution has become a reference point for the management team, providing a unified, actionable and shared view of Servimatic’s operational and commercial reality.

Economic & Financial Reporting

The finance area needed a robust and secure reporting layer that would enable consolidated analysis of results and comparison between periods. The solution includes the balance sheet, profit and loss (P&L), trial balances and several screens with key KPIs.

Live analysis with IoT

It was necessary to capture immediate and precise information from the machines (thanks to the installation of IoT devices) in order to know, with accuracy, key aspects for the business such as:

  • Control of the coin hopper level for each machine, in order to avoid stoppages or theft.
  • Detection of disconnected machines and prevention of breakdowns.
  • Analysis of playing patterns by day, time, month and for each machine game.
  • Views and analysis by geography, branch, type of venue and machine model.

Commercial Dashboard

Sales teams need all relevant commercial information about each client to be available on a single platform.

The solution developed by Holistic:

  • Prevents salespeople from wasting time collecting scattered information from different tools before each visit.
  • Enables unified information to be consulted in a format adapted to tablet use.
  • Provides an agile visualisation specifically designed around the sales visit.

Technical Service and Workshop Control

A solution was required to gain a better understanding of how the Technical Service and Workshop were operating, with the aim of improving responsiveness and optimising resources.

The solution includes, among other elements:

  • Analysis of response times during working hours and on-call periods.
  • Classification of types of breakdowns and incidents.
  • Analysis by area, company, branch, machine type and type of venue.
  • Navigation from general KPIs through to the root cause of each issue.

Results

The collaboration between Servimatic and Holistic has gone far beyond the development of isolated solutions. Through a set of strategic dashboards developed with Power BI, concrete and measurable results have been achieved, with a direct impact on the day-to-day work of the teams and on decision-making at corporate level.

These are the main benefits that the solutions have delivered to the organisation:

  • Real digitalisation of the business, with centralised and unified information in real time.
  • Deep knowledge of the business, through clear, comparable and drillable KPIs.
  • Reduction of risks and losses thanks to real-time control of machines (thefts, breakdowns, stoppages).
  • Increased operational efficiency in the Technical Service and Workshop, thanks to response time and incident analysis.
  • Empowerment of business users, who can consult, filter and explore information on their own using Power BI.

The collaboration continues to evolve: we are currently working on a new budgeting solution and on exploring artificial intelligence applications within Servimatic’s data ecosystem.

The forward-looking vision of Servimatic and Holistic’s commitment are defining the path towards an increasingly data-driven organisation, ready to face any challenge with high-value information.
