Enterprise Data Integration and Business Intelligence Platform to Unlock Data-Driven Insights

The client faces challenges with multiple disjointed systems collecting large volumes of transactional data, resulting in data silos and inconsistent, unverified information. These issues hinder accurate insights across the revenue cycle, impair decision-making, and reduce operational efficiency. The client requires a comprehensive data management solution that consolidates diverse data sources into a single trusted platform.

A large logistics service provider operating multiple freight modalities with a complex mix of on-premises and cloud-based systems, seeking to improve data accuracy and operational visibility.
