Advanced Reporting for a Leading West Coast RetailerRetail and eCommerce
Aligning technology support during onboarding is a challenge for new leaders, as seen in a recent case at a retail company.
There was also little to no hand over documentation as the previous accountable member had resigned only a few days before the joining of the new team member, leaving them with limited visibility into areas of enhancement. They lacked reporting, cutting into their ability to gain insights related to their organization.
With knowledge of a data warehouse that was in place from a previous consultant, the new leader knew it was a priority to begin building out Power BI reports. They were struggling with the untrustworthiness of their data. With data sources such as Shopify and Acumatica, the first priority was building a data pipeline and reconcile as well as aggregate the data.

How Aretove Helped
Aretove knew that with a team that was new and did not have a roadmap already in place for what they’d like to do, Aretove’s team needed to step in. By working collaboratively with the Client to prepare the data, building the planned out models, and creating the reports, these key initiatives began to come along.
With constant connectivity with the Client via brainstorming sessions, the planned results of these projects were clearly defined. Reports built out for finance and Marketing reams that looked into Sales, Channel performance, brands, customers and more.
