SHG are seeking a data platform architecture solution to align its business objectives by integrating various data technologies across business domains, creating a single trusted source for reporting and analysis. SHG current landscape see's several disparate systems, some hosted in the cloud by third party suppliers and some on-premises which are managed by Stockport Council (SMBC). SHGs main system uses over 2000 tables and is heavily normalised, without access to schema for the database, or a database optimised for reporting meaning that reporting from this database can be a challenge and is reliant on specialists, therefore, reporting cannot be rolled out to the wider organisation. As detailed above SHG work in a challenging reporting environment resulting in requirements such as, but not limited to: • Automate data extraction, transformation, and integration across multiple systems. • Identify the 'golden record' for customers and assets. • Develop a single trusted source for reporting and analysis. • Use the golden record to identify record sets that need attention. • Improve data ownership, data quality and reliability. • Improve business intelligence and insights to support data informed decision making. • Develop our use of predictive and prescriptive analytics - using the science of the data. • Be confident the data presented demonstrates the complete picture. • Increase efficiency and empower decision making. • Remove the need for manual extraction and creation of semi-structured datasets for the purpose of manipulation and analysis. • Develop subject-orientated views of the data, enabling end user reporting. • Reduce the time for BI specialists to deliver reports. • Easily report across all or any systems via the use of integrated views. • Establish time-based analysis and reporting. • Provide a single group view of performance that can be analysed as required.
