A Banking Data Warehouse Proof of Concept Turns Core Data into Management Dashboards

Build a banking analytics foundation that turns core banking data into management dashboards.

Para built and delivered a banking enterprise data warehouse proof of concept. It loaded data from the bank's Bank 2000 and Informix systems into a model built for reporting. The bank then used that model to run its KPIs and management dashboards.

Banking & Financial Services Data, Analytics & Performance Data & BI Platforms Enterprise Applications & Integration

Business challenge

  • Banking reports needed structured integration from core source data.
  • Every view of the bank's performance, from a single branch to the whole customer base, needed the same measures.
  • Regional Arabic data needed cleanup to work across languages.

Para approach

  1. We mapped financial and management reporting needs.
  2. We extracted and staged core banking data.
  3. We designed banking dimensional and semantic models.
  4. We defined the logic behind every KPI and dashboard.
  5. We made it possible to analyze performance by customer, relationship manager, or branch.

How it works

Validated banking EDW proof-of-concept and analytics accelerator foundation. Evidence: EDW business requirements, dimension build documents, Informix extraction and SSIS guide, and the KPI and dashboard build guide.

POC boundary preserved

The evidence proves a delivered POC and accelerator foundation. It does not prove a bank-wide production EDW.

Technology & delivery context

Bank 2000 and Informix source data, staged in SQL Server and modeled in Analysis Services, with dashboard and scorecard engineering.
