Challenges.
The environmental giant couldn’t achieve what it needed from its legacy cloud platform, which created roadblocks when information was needed to make crucial business decisions. It was challenging to access and retrieve data, and nearly impossible to analyze it. The company realized it needed a new platform to improve financial reporting and shift a culture that based its decisions on assumptions. They needed a flexible, cost-effective cloud-based IT solution that met their strategic goals and laid the groundwork for continued growth.
The main goal was to make cloud systems as effective and impactful as possible and increase scalability, flexibility, and performance efficiency. The journey started with a fundamental concept: unlock the company's data and expose the value within.
