The Challenge

Hochland needed to:

  • Create an easily expandable database layer for new data sources.
  • Accelerate the process of delivering data to the right decision-makers.
  • Increase the accessibility and transparency of information in reports thanks to Power BI's presentation layer.
  • Create a robust and manageable data model from which data can be consumed through various tools.

Hochland's team was looking for a partner who would not only perform a specific service, but one who would act as a Technology Advisory provider, also supporting their team proactively by proposing the best solutions in areas that are new to them.

The Solution

A Microsoft SQL Server based solution with a scalable data model created in Azure Analysis Services enabling ad hoc analysis and Power BI reports creation in a few hours.

Using the Scrum framework ensured complete delivery of the client’s expectations while ensuring adaptability to business requirement.

The Results

  • Time to insight improved from 1 week to under 1 day for 100 users who moved from Excel to Power BI
  • Hochland’s executive and back-office teams now have 6 new, complex Power BI reports to dig deeper into their most critical KPIs for actionable insights
  • The solution successfully integrates 26 data sources in various formats (Excel, CSV, database) into one standardized data model
  • Hosted an efficient and scalable data warehouse in the cloud (Azure) which combines data from many different systems, unifies them, and provides a single source of truth for the whole organization
  • Our solution improved the business decision-making process in the areas of sales, planning, monitoring, and development in the organization
