Case Study: Fannie Mae achieves 75% faster report processing with Alteryx

Analytic Transformation at Fannie Mae

Fannie Mae faced a tight six‑month mandate to retire a legacy BI tool and migrate roughly 30 complex dashboards to a new platform without losing key functionality. The Business Intelligence team had to combine up to ten disparate data sources per report, preserve intricate financial calculations and custom code, and coordinate cross‑geography collaboration and training while meeting an aggressive timeline.

The team ran a proof of concept, prioritized nearly 40 dashboards, performed a gap analysis, and finalized a technical architecture that routed data preparation and advanced joins/calculations through Alteryx, feeding outputs to MicroStrategy and Tableau. This approach cut report execution time from 40 to 10 minutes (≈75% faster), enabled conversion of over 30 dashboards in six months, allowed decommissioning of legacy reports, and produced a knowledge base to support ongoing training and improved project planning.
