Big Data Analytics Case Study
The Situation
Our client is a reputable engineering services company covering multiple sectors from coastal hazards to water science, hydrology, landfill, and geoscience. They’d accumulated a large amount of data from several years in operation including geotechnical tests, groundwater monitoring, lab results and project data.
Over the years, different data sources and databases were spread across multiple platforms, which, in turn, made data analysis practically impossible. They were dealing with a multitude of clients and struggled to get a consolidated view of any of their projects.
The business quickly realised that their business data consolidation was key to improving efficiency and allowing further development of their digital solutions.
Our Approach
We interviewed multiple stakeholders and quickly identified major sources of data that needed to be cleaned, processed, and stored in an easy and accessible way. The concept of a “Lake House” (using Cloud Services) was introduced to the business, which enabled storage of both structured and unstructured data in a unified way.
Lake House enabled the business to analyse big data, automate many of its processes and create several dashboards for financial and operational reporting.
Client Outcomes
To summarise, data that previously held little commercial value was translated to become useful information with a friendly user interface that was secure, affordable, and futureproof, supporting a single version of the truth that then enabled robust decision making.
Specifically:
Multiple sources of data were uploaded to the Lake House which allowed staff to access all project metrics expediently.
The cost of data storage reduced significantly by introducing the cloud platform and the appropriate level of storage.
A simple data application was created using Lake House data (single repository), which enabled staff to reduce the time spent generating some reports by 90%.
The new data management architecture (Lake House) significantly simplified business data infrastructure and accelerated innovation by enabling machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI).
