Case Study: a large automotive supplier achieves faster, governed reporting with Focaloid Technologies

a large automotive supplier boosts report refresh speed by 75% with Focaloid Technologies

Focaloid Technologies was engaged by a large automotive supplier, a major European enterprise with over 50,000 employees. The client struggled with a fragile, manual reporting system built on scattered Python scripts, Excel macros, and inefficient Power BI transformations. This setup demanded excessive manual data preparation from business teams, was slow to refresh, and could not scale to meet organizational demands.

Focaloid Technologies implemented a solution centered on a Microsoft SSIS ETL layer and a dedicated data warehouse, which consolidated and automated the data pipeline. This new architecture moved complex transformations out of Power BI, leading to drastically faster report performance. The results included an estimated 75% faster report refresh, an 80% reduction in manual data effort, and secure, governed reporting with automated refreshes, providing the enterprise with a scalable and maintainable business intelligence foundation.
