1. Business Problem & Objective

Executive leadership relied on fragmented spreadsheet reports generated manually by disparate teams, resulting in 2-week reporting lags and conflicting metric definitions across departments.

2. Dataset Description

Normalized SQL data warehouse containing 15+ relational tables including Orders, Subscriptions, Customer Support Tickets, Marketing Spend, and Financial Ledgers.

3. Data Cleaning & Preprocessing

  • Engineered robust Star Schema data warehouse with dedicated Fact and Dimension tables.
  • Implemented dbt (data build tool) transformations for reliable automated data pipelines.
  • Defined standardized DAX measures for MRR, ARR, CAC, LTV, Net Churn Rate, and Expansion Revenue.

4. Methodology & Machine Learning Architecture

Analytical Steps

  • Agile BI development with user acceptance testing across department heads.
  • Row-Level Security (RLS) implementation to restrict sensitive financial metrics by user role.
  • Incremental refresh setup reducing query latency from 45 seconds to under 1.2 seconds.

Model Development & Evaluation

Configured advanced DAX formulas for time-intelligence calculations (YoY Growth, MoM Variance, Running Total, Rolling 12-Month Average).

5. Results & Strategic Business Insights

Key Results Achieved

  • Replaced 14 static Excel reports with a single unified real-time dashboard.
  • Reduced reporting lead time from 14 days to real-time (< 2 seconds).
  • Accelerated strategic decision-making cycles during executive board meetings.

Actionable Insights

  • Enterprise tiers accounted for 68% of ARR despite representing only 12% of the active customer base.
  • Onboarding drops off by 28% if user activation takes longer than 48 hours from initial signup.
