SKOPOS Cuts Report Creation Time by 80% with E-Tabs Automation

SKOPOS relied on manual processes to produce PowerPoint reports for a large-scale tracking study spanning 18 markets. The project used a 30-minute online questionnaire across four target groups and required both global and market-specific reports, resulting in 76 PowerPoint reports with over 2,000 slides to be produced in just four weeks. The manual approach constrained analysts’ time for deeper analysis, risked delays and errors, and limited the firm’s ability to deliver timely, actionable insights to clients.

E-Tabs Enterprise report automation platform. E-Tabs automated the conversion of data into fully formatted, native PowerPoint reports (also supporting Google Slides/Sheets) with deep customization: templated slide designs, per-chart customization, integrated significance testing, and the ability to pull data from dashboards via API (Power BI, Tableau or other sources). The solution enabled automated generation of large volumes of slides and reports while preserving SKOPOS’s visual and analytical requirements.

SKOPOS reduced the time spent creating PowerPoint slides dramatically — they reported being able to generate a single report in under ten minutes and achieving an 80% reduction in reporting time. The automation improved report quality and consistency (customized charts, diagrams and tables, native PowerPoint output, integrated significance testing), freed analyst time for deeper analysis and storytelling, accelerated report delivery, and increased team satisfaction by removing tedious, manual slide production.
