Challenge
The company stored data using on-site locations and spreadsheets. While the spreadsheets supplied relevant information, the data was scattered and sometimes unreliable, so the company needed to reduce the amount of time and effort allocated for gathering accurate data.
Solution
Orion worked with the company to implement a single reporting platform, Microsoft Azure Data Factory. This factory is connected to all of the data sources within the company and provides real-time reports through Power BI, thus allowing employees to monitor everything from a single source and easily identify and resolve issues.
