Data Intelligence

Making Decisions and Taking Action Based on Data

KPI Dashboards, Predictive Analytics, and Anomaly Detection

    The data is available, yet departments are still waiting for reports; Excel reporting quickly becomes outdated, and AI remains in the pilot phase.

    With the Data Intelligence Solution, we turn quality-assured data products into actionable insights: role-based KPI dashboards, predictive analytics, self-service with AI-powered data querying (“Ask your Data”), and anomaly detection. Teams make data-driven decisions and automate recurring analyses.

    From consulting to implementation, we support companies through every step—from assessment and proof of value to production-ready dashboards and AI in routine operations. Getting started is technology-agnostic and can be planned using fixed-price packages.

    Challenges

    When Key Metrics Are Available but Decisions Still Stall

    Many organizations already have reporting solutions. Nevertheless, business units are often unable to answer their own business questions: They lack an integrated, usable database with data products on which they can easily and independently build use cases. Without this access, decision-making remains slow, and automation fails to become part of everyday operations.
     

    Typical signs:

    • Departments without easy access to approved, understandable data products
    • Ad hoc analyses that end up in a backlog of tickets with the BI and analytics team, taking up processing time
    • Reporting solutions that display key metrics but don’t provide quick answers to new business questions
    • Use cases that fail due to usability and database integration issues rather than the business concept
    • Dashboards without self-service, AI-powered data querying (“Ask Your Data”), or role-specific views
    • Models and predictions that remain stuck in the pilot phase and do not lead to decisions or automation

     

    Data Intelligence fills exactly this gap: providing simple, user-friendly access to data products so that teams can make effective and efficient decisions and automate courses of action. If the integrated foundation is still missing, we build on the Data Lakehouse or start there.

    The key question is: How can business units gain actionable access to data products so they can make data-driven decisions and take action?

    Data products are transformed into decisions and recommendations for action

    The Data Intelligence Solution is the second building block. It builds on the data products of the Data Lakehouse and provides easy access to concrete insights.

    Three areas are intertwined: reporting, analytics and data-driven AI.

     

    We select and combine existing BI and AI components to fit your tech stack. The insight layer remains tightly integrated with the data platform: lineage and quality extend all the way to the dashboard, ensuring that requirements under the EU AI Act and data protection regulations remain manageable.
    We provide the basis for decision-making and automatable decision-making logic.

    If the scope is clearly defined, we can deliver a Proof of Value in about 4 to 6 weeks. The Data Readiness Check, which takes about 15 minutes, is a good place to start. The Data Assessment  is available to help identify use cases and potential.

    For Data Explorer & Data Champion

    Data Explorer

    Initial reports and dashboards are in place, but business units can't move forward without the BI team. The focus is on establishing common definitions for key metrics, creating initial role-based dashboards, and demonstrating proof of value with measurable benefits.

    More About the Data Explorer

    Data Champion

    Reporting is up and running, but analytics and AI remain in the pilot phase. Next up are self-service capabilities for approved data products, AI-powered data querying, and operationalized models in production, including MLOps.

    More about the Data Champion


    If the quality of the data products (Gold Layer) isn't quite there yet, we'll start with the Data Lakehouse in parallel or as our first step. Once the foundation is solid, we'll move directly to use cases and dashboards.

    Successful Data Intelligence Projects


    With doubleSlash, we successfully implemented our data analytics project on an equal footing. From the very beginning, we felt we were in excellent hands—both professionally and personally. We were particularly impressed by the team’s high level of expertise and their professional project management, which was collaborative, straightforward, and solution-oriented. – Maximilian Tschochner, Ph.D. (Eng.), Data Analyst, BMW AG

    Building Blocks

    Insights & Reporting

    Corporate reporting, as well as role-based dashboards and cockpits for operations, service, sales, and management. The goal is to provide transparency regarding business relationships in a way that is easy to understand and tailored to each role.

     

    Self-Service Analytics

    Business units can ask ad hoc questions themselves, including AI-powered data queries (Ask Your Data) using natural language. This is made possible by the Data Lakehouse Solution, which delivers actionable data products and ensures governance.

     

    Monitoring & Detection

    System status, usage, and performance are monitored. Technical and operational anomalies and trends are identified early, before they become business-critical.

     

     

    Advanced Analytics

    Predictive analytics for forecasting outages, maintenance, demand, or revenue, as well as prescriptive analytics for specific courses of action. Models are selected and combined where it supports the business case.

    Recommendations & Monetization Insights

    Proactive recommendations on service quality, maintenance, and upselling. We provide the insights and enable their economic utilization through monetization.

     

    Our Approach

    Here's How We Deliver Data Intelligence

    We start with the business questions: What KPIs and target audiences do we need, and which use cases offer the clearest benefits? We assess the maturity level of your data products. In the Proof of Value phase, given a clear scope, we’ll deliver a functional dashboard, analytics model, or validated forecast—including a benefit assessment to support the decision to scale—in about 4 to 6 weeks.

    The implementation includes production-ready dashboards, reporting pipelines from data products to consumers, self-service configuration, and—where applicable—operationalized AI, including MLOps. Enablement ensures that business units and analytics teams adopt the solutions in their day-to-day work.

     


    We take a technology-agnostic approach and work with established BI tools, among other solutions. Where appropriate, we also build dashboards that are fully customized to your processes and key metrics:


    Typical Use Cases

    • Automated Business Reporting:
      Management dashboards and recurring reports whose key metrics are automatically updated from source systems and data products.
    • Role-Based Dashboards:
      Quality, Service, or Sales teams view their own key performance indicators in tailored views.
    • Self-Service and AI-Powered Data Querying (Ask Your Data):
      Business units answer ad hoc questions themselves, reducing the workload on data engineering for routine inquiries.
    • Monetization Insights:
      Make usage and upsell visible to inform monetization strategies.

     

     

    • Reliable Predictions:
      Forecasts for maintenance, demand, or revenue—from validation in the proof of value phase through to routine operations.
    • BI Modernization:
      Restructuring or cloud migration of legacy dashboard landscapes when performance and maintainability suffer.
    • Monitoring and Anomaly Detection:
      Digital services and assets are continuously monitored; deviations trigger action before significant damage occurs.
