Implementing Data Management Infrastructure

Our transport client collects an extensive amount of data and required a new infrastructure that would allow them to better manage their data and use it for informed decision making. The client needed to conduct analysis combining several different data sources including its own systems and those supplied from third parties. Available data required better alignment with the organisational KPIs and associated reporting as well as a reduction in manual effort required to produce them. The client also wanted to obtain new insights into its performance by integrating new sources of data and combining them with existing information.

Utilising our extensive data management experience and understanding of cloud storage infrastructure, we built and supplied a centralised cloudbased data store to support analytics and reporting use. This included a data lake as the single source of truth, supported by a structure store and data model providing validated and aligned information to end users.

The target state architecture was designed to improve data governance and serve to increase automation of the client’s traffic reporting capability. It includes multiple internal and external integrations to accomodate both internal and third party data, and can integrate new data extremely quickly. We also designed, created and produced key traffic reporting using PowerBi for visualisation dashboards then delivered training to ensure ongoing monitoring and best practice.
