One custom solution, one process improvement, or one KPI at a time
Clearly defining the objectives of each process, data sources, and business rules that need to be applied to final values, are the foundational steps of any project.
Collecting representative data files from the SMEs allows our team to determine the best way to organize the data into logical groups and highlight dimensional tables.
While the architectural design puts the correct structure in place, the data warehouse is what gives the database life. Step one is setting the refresh frequency.
The database itself is just a repository. Data modeling is where all the information in the warehouse is linked together and measures and calculations are defined.
The only interaction the users have with the data is through the reporting tool. Regardless of an elegant data structure, the users are only served by useful reports.
Once reporting is in place, team members will quickly rely on its functionality. Having an ongoing maintenance plan in place is key to the continuous success of the project.
