Driving Customer-Centricity with a Modern Data Platform
Leeds Building Society wanted to make better use of data and access modern analytical tools to support improved decision making. This highlighted the need to take their BI capability to a new level with a recommendation to embark upon a multi-year improvement programme across the Information Management landscape. The end goal was to support their customer-centric requirements and enable a greater understanding of their members, with the aim of helping more people to save and have the home they want.

A series of business orientated data marts with SAP HANA provided a best in class BI application and included self-service reporting and visualisations within business areas to drive improved empowerment and faster decisions making.
