Based on the analysis, standardized data models were created and processes for data collection, transformation and consolidation were set up. The solution was implemented using Azure Data Factory
Thorough testing of the system and staff training completed the project and ensured effective use of the new management reporting tool. After testing, the system was deployed into live operation and is now being supported and further developed according to user feedback.
