Challenge

Zydus’ field teams were scattered across multiple zones and areas, each responsible for sales, client relationships, and demand fulfillment. However, accessing business-critical data required logging into multiple applications, which slowed down workflows and discouraged adoption. Notifications for stock alerts, anniversaries, or incentives often went unnoticed, and employees lacked a simple, unified tool for both quick lookups and deeper insights.

Business Impact
  • Manual effort to track stockist data, pending orders, and sales trends.
  • Limited ability to provide territory-specific insights based on zone/region/area.
  • Field members missed timely updates due to fragmented notification systems.
  • Rigid user interfaces made adoption difficult for on-the-go employees.
  • No option for flexible interaction; structured navigation vs. natural queries.
KPIs Affected
  • Sales achievement rate
  • Doctor engagement frequency
  • Field productivity levels
  • Report generation time
  • Territory-level performance visibility
  • Digital adoption rate

  • Phase 2:Introduced a dual interaction model, users could either navigate through tiles & sub-tiles to select data categories, or simply type their queries in natural language for instant answers.
  • Phase 3:Added advanced reporting, historical sales comparisons, coverage insights, and an analytics dashboard to track performance trends and usage patterns
