Abstract
Due to technological progress, organizations tend to improve in the technological aspect, emphasizing the logistics sector; this represents an advantage in the market due to the agility of its procedures. Companies belonging to the logistics sector or those that have this area in their organizational structure lack intelligent technology in their inventory process, so the logistics area is exposed to common errors of workers in terms of maintaining adequate supply, the rapid execution in the way of how to send a certain item and reliability in the classic Excel books for their ability to generate small reports. Based on the above, the main motive of the present research work is implementing a business intelligence solution to support the mentioned process, mainly by effectively using historical data stored on the company's server. During the project's development, the Kimball methodology was used, which is precisely designed to delimit step by step the complete procedure for the management of analytical projects, which influences the design of the most relevant information for the company. The implementation of this solution is intended to achieve the objective of this work, to generate high competitiveness in logistics through the automation of manual activities and help in decision-making.

Keywords
