RESULTS CHALLENGE SOLUTION
COMPANY and GOAL
Summary
We are an energy and services company and one
of our strategic goals is Cost Efficiency &
Simplification
An aging reporting process
with confused ownership of
data took too long to produce
and quality was questionable
Give the data context using Asset Framework, find it using Event Frames and prepare using Integrators
Vastly reduced time spent
preparing reports
• ZERO lines of custom coding
• New assets included and disposed
of assets removed automatically
• We now have a simple and efficient process for operational reporting
• Allowing the Data & Analytics team to do more analytics and less data preparation
