When the data exists but the answer does not
Start with the question
that actually needs answering.
Many companies already have data in ERP systems, spreadsheets, reports and operational tools. RÄVIR takes on focused analytical work when an independent view, a forecast or a more robust data workflow is needed — without turning the question into a large IT project.
What drives our transport or operating cost?
Separate volume, mix, price and operational variation before drawing the conclusion.
Why is our performance changing?
Check KPI definitions, data quality and competing explanations before building the story.
What should we plan for over the next weeks or months?
Test forecasting against a simple baseline and make forecast error and uncertainty visible.
Is the current agreement or workflow still the right one?
Compare alternatives on equal assumptions — including when the status quo turns out to be the best option.
Four services · one discipline
Concrete assignments.
Shared method.
The services can stand alone or be combined. The common denominator is a clear question, documented method and a conclusion that is not predetermined.
Analytics
Analysis of operations, transport, inventory, cost and KPIs.
A documented analysis with findings, limitations and next steps.

Forecast Lab and the day planner show small, inspectable workflows: baseline before complexity, alternatives before recommendation and limitations that remain visible.
Tony Weberg
RÄVIR is founded and operated by Tony Weberg, an operations and data analyst with years of experience across energy, transport, logistics and operational environments.
Work has included forecasting, capacity planning, KPIs, data quality, transport and supplier performance, and the development of analytical and planning tools.
The target is not the conclusion.
THE RÄVIR METHOD
Analysis before conclusion
The desired outcome
is an input — not the answer.
Companies have targets, experience, hypotheses and expectations. So do we. They are relevant inputs, but they are not evidence by themselves.
RÄVIR aims to make assumptions visible, examine alternative explanations and match the strength of a conclusion to the strength of the evidence. A simple explanation is allowed to win. If the data cannot decide the question, that is part of the result.
We do not seek the desired conclusion. We seek the best-supported one.
Operational data · concrete questions
Who is RÄVIR for?
RÄVIR works with businesses that have operational data and a concrete question — including those without an internal analytics team to investigate it thoroughly.
We are not tied to a single industry. We work on operations and performance, logistics and supply chains, capacity and planning, procurement and supplier data, forecasting, cost analysis, and recurring data workflows and reporting.
What matters is a clearly defined question, relevant data and an answer that can support a real improvement. We work with the client’s subject matter experts to understand processes and interpret results.
