Industry
As organizations expand across international markets, integrating data from multiple sources becomes increasingly complex. A leading global provider of renewable energy solutions faced this challenge after rapid expansion through multiple acquisitions across North America and Europe. With numerous applications and siloed data systems, the company needed a centralized data platform to provide global visibility and real-time business insights.
Siloed data in a rapidly expanding business
The company’s growth had led to a fragmented IT landscape, with each acquired entity maintaining its own data systems and reporting tools. Without a unified platform, leadership lacked a comprehensive, real-time view of global operations, making strategic decision-making difficult. To address this, the company partnered with Nortal to develop an integrated data platform that could consolidate enterprise data and provide a centralized global dashboard for improved analytics and forecasting.
A unified data platform with Microsoft Fabric & Azure Data Lake
Nortal implemented a modern data architecture using Microsoft Fabric and Azure Data Lake, creating a scalable and secure foundation for enterprise-wide data integration. While the initial engagement was scoped as a proof of concept (POC), Nortal significantly exceeded expectations, integrating over 10 data sources instead of just one. This approach not only demonstrated the viability of Microsoft Fabric as a long-term data solution but also enabled advanced analytics and business intelligence across the company’s global operations.
Transforming data into actionable insights
Enterprise-Wide Data Visibility
A new global dashboard provides leadership with real-time insights into forecasting, purchasing trends, and key business patterns, driving smarter, data-driven decisions.
Seamless Data Migration & Governance
The company’s legacy data warehouse is being retired, with Nortal leading the transition to Microsoft Fabric, ensuring scalability, security, and compliance.
Mature Data Governance & Adoption
Nortal introduced industry best practices for data governance, security, and migration policies, ensuring smooth adoption and long-term sustainability of the new platform.
Looking ahead
With a scalable, future-proof data platform, the company is now well-positioned to optimize data-driven decision-making and operational efficiency across its global markets. The partnership with Nortal has not only provided immediate value but also laid the foundation for continued innovation and growth in enterprise data strategy.
