ITMAGINATION was the BI & Analytics technology partner on a large-scale project for Hochland, a leading cheese manufacturer in Europe and the US. We helped Hochland's team transition from using Excel-based databases, workflows, and visualizations to a centralized Data Warehouse and self-serve analytics in Power BI.

Headquartered in Germany with the offices in Poland, France, Spain, Romania and the USA, Hochland boasts €1.59 billion euros in revenue and has over 5,000 employees. They are a family-owned cheese manufacturer operating since 1927.

The Challenge

Hochland was looking for a Technology Partner that would develop their current data models, database solutions, and implement Business Intelligence systems for them using Power BI.

Their core goals were to:

  • Create an easily expandable database layer for new data sources.
  • Accelerate the process of delivering data to the right decision-makers.
  • Increase the accessibility and transparency of information in reports thanks to Power BI's presentation layer.
  • Create a robust and manageable data model from which data can be consumed through various tools.

Hochland was looking for a partner who would not only perform a specific service, but a partner who would act as a Technology Advisory provider who would also support their team significantly and proactively by proposing the best solutions in areas that are new to them.

The Solution

We implemented a solution based on Microsoft SQL Server. An extensive and easily scalable data model created in Azure Analysis Services provides the client with the ability to perform ad-hoc analysis using various analytical tools as well as creating new reports easily in Power BI.

Thanks to the implementation of the project using the Scrum framework, we ensured that its result fully met the client's expectations, which were consulted on an ongoing basis and adjusted to business requirements.

The Results

  • Around 100 employees have switched from Excel to Power BI within the first few months. Data is processed faster, impacting all analytical teams in the company and allowing Hochland to implement easy-to-use self-serve business intelligence across the company.
  • We delivered 6 new, complex Power BI reports for different business areas.
  • We successfully integrated 26 data sources in various formats (Excel, CSV, database) into one standardized data model.
  • Hosted an efficient and scalable data warehouse in the cloud (Azure) which combines data from many different systems, unifies them, and provides a single source of truth for the whole organization.
  • Our solution improved the business decision-making process in the areas of sales, planning, monitoring, and development in the organization.
