Overview
Challenges
Our client had around 1200+ data tables stored in various legacy servers and platforms, making it challenging to access for business reporting. Their diverse data ranged from safety measures, training, and accident cases to financial data like financial performances of vendors in CSV format in the SQL server. Consequently, our client faced challenges integrating the data, mapping these data fields, and deriving meaningful insights from their vendor data.
They hired us to streamline their operational efficiency, overcome
challenges with extraction of valuable business insights to formulate
strategic decisions.
Solution
Our client managed diverse financial and safety data from various sources like ComputerEase, Quickbooks, Spectrum, Sage 100, Sage 50, Foundation, Netsuite, Sage Intacct, and safety metrics in CSV format. Initially, we modified the client’s ADF pipeline to accommodate this data and to incorporate Store Procedures like Raw Stage and Persist Area.
We created a scalable ETL data pipeline in Azure to centralize key business data for streamlined analytics. Leveraging ADF Dataflow, we transformed and deposited the refined data into an Azure SQL server, ensuring centralized and reliable storage.
Using Power BI, we organized the data and conducted manual validation within the ADF pipeline. We optimized the pipeline and automated data updates through scheduled triggers to increase efficiency. We ran the transformed data through Power BI dashboards to gather insights across various domains, including fleet, sales, finance, safety, HR, and IT tickets. These dashboards offered a complete view, aiding in performance analysis, trend identification, and future forecasting.
This end-to-end solution elevated data accuracy and accessibility and em-powered our client with data-driven insights for strategic decision-making.
