Automating Analytics & Insights
Challenges
- Lack of Analytical Dashboard:
The company lacked a comprehensive dashboard for data visualization and decision-making, making it difficult to gain actionable insights. - Fragmented Data Reporting:
Data reporting was scattered across different departments, making consolidation and analysis inefficient. - Limited Integration:
The company’s systems, including ERP, HRMS, and QHSE, were not seamlessly integrated, complicating data extraction and analysis. - Inadequate Alert System:
There was no automated system for sending alerts on critical SLA/KPI misses, impacting response times and business performance. - Manual Data Handling:
Manual processes for data collation and manipulation were time-consuming and prone to errors. - Inconsistent Data Formats:
Data came in varying formats, making it difficult to consolidate and analyze efficiently.
Solution Highlights
To address these issues, a range of automation and analytics solutions were implemented:
- RPA Implementation:
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) was used to automate Excel report handling and data loading, reducing manual work. - Custom Windows Service:
Developed a custom service to connect with enterprise applications, extract data, and update the database in real time. - SLA/KPI Monitoring:
Set up a system for tracking SLAs and KPIs, providing timely alerts to ensure performance targets were met. - Business Intelligence Platform:
Implemented a robust platform for creating data-driven insights and real-time dashboards. - ACL-Based Access:
Role-based access control (ACL) was introduced to ensure secure and efficient data access for different stakeholders. - Report Sharing:
Enabled easy report sharing across departments to ensure stakeholders had real-time access to critical data.
Business Impact
- Reduced Report Refresh Time:
Report refresh time was reduced from every 15 days to daily, enabling real-time insights.
- 175 Man Hours Saved Per Month:
Automation of data extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) processes, along with dashboard creation, saved significant time.
- Close to 100% Accuracy:
Automation significantly improved the accuracy of data processing and reporting.
- Real-Time Visibility:
Near real-time visibility into company performance led to faster, data-driven decision-making.
