Case study
Governed reporting across a production network
Industrial manufacturing
Foundation then Activation then Acceleration- Situation
- An industrial manufacturer reporting across a production network of sites, each with its own view of what was running.
- What we built
- Foundation. A review of the site-level reporting that showed why no network-level view existed and where the access rules would have to sit.
- Activation. Unified governed reporting across the network, with enterprise row-level security carrying the access rules, so every stakeholder sees exactly their own numbers and only those.
- Acceleration. AI on the governed network model that answers within the same row-level security, so nobody can ask their way into a neighbouring site’s numbers.
- What was broken
- Site-level reporting existed and network-level reporting did not, and the access question sat on top of it: the numbers that make a network comparable are also the numbers a site manager should not see for a neighbouring site.
- Where it left them
- One reporting layer for a network that had been reporting in pieces, with the security model doing the work that used to be done by simply not sharing the file.
- Stack
- Row-level security
- Power BI
