Providing a Trillion-Dollar enterprise the data needed to make the real-time business decisions
Zero-Defect Daily Revenue Flash Report
Microsoft needed to empower its C-Suite to make swift business decisions by drastically reducing the wait time for daily revenue reports. This required faster delivery, improved data quality and security, and a modern user experience with rich visualizations. Additionally, Microsoft aimed to evolve their reporting model from descriptive to prescriptive.
Leveraging Databricks to enhance data analysis
Launch Consulting aimed to integrate Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence into Microsoft's high-Impact Business data processes. Initially, Databricks was deemed non-compliant and insecure. Launch conducted an in-depth analysis of Databricks to gain a full understanding of its functionalities and potential uses. We developed a secure, compliant installation process for corporate developers, enabling the secure use of Databricks for financial data. This effort was approved, allowing Microsoft to leverage advanced analytics for financial data.
“Launch has cut CEO wait time for daily revenue flash by seven hours.”
– Jun Hata, Sr. Finance Manager
