Integrated Data System for Enterprise with 100M Revenue

Set up a data system including lakehouse, ETL pipelines and BI reporting in Microsoft Fabric for a German enterprise.

🚧 The Challenge

A global industrial OEM with subsidiaries in Germany, the US, and China, faced growing complexity in consolidating data. Each subsidiary operated its own siloed data systems, making unified reporting and decision-making difficult across business units and geographies.

💡 The Solution

To streamline data workflows and enable centralized analytics, we are implementing a global data platform centered on Microsoft Fabric:

  • 🌐 Unified Data Architecture: Integrated disparate systems into a single, centralized data model.
  • ⚙️ ETL Pipelines: Built scalable data pipelines to extract, transform, and load data from local systems to the Fabric environment.
  • 📊 Power BI Dashboards: Delivered cross-subsidiary reporting and real-time business intelligence tailored to executive and operational needs.

🚀 Business Impact

Company-wide Visibility: Leadership will have a real-time, consolidated view of global operations across all subsidiaries.

Faster Decision-Making: Centralized data access speeds up analysis, forecasting, and reporting cycles.

Scalable Infrastructure: The Microsoft Fabric platform provides a foundation for future AI/ML initiatives and enterprise-level automation.
