The challenge: A daily routine defined by fragmented insights

For a global player in a complex industry, up-to-date data is central to operations. For Enhanced Drilling, however, data was scattered across a range of isolated systems for finance, HR, projects, and sensor data.

In practice, this meant valuable time was lost to manual analysis and complex Excel spreadsheets. The lack of a holistic overview made it challenging to connect financial results with operational performance. Management often faced "different versions of the truth," which slowed down decision-making and made it difficult to scale analytical work in line with the company's growth.

The solution: A modern data platform with Microsoft Fabric

Since May 2025, Axaz has served as the strategic digitalization partner with overall responsibility for the implementation. By adopting Microsoft Fabric and Azure, Axaz has implemented an end-to-end data platform that consolidates everything into a central data warehouse.

‍

Our role included:

• Architecture and strategy: Establishing a robust medallion architecture (bronze, silver, gold)
• Integration work: Seamless integration of data from HR, CRM, QMS, operations, and finance.
• Data products and visualization: Development of data models, data products, and Power BI solutions that provide the foundation for insight, automation, and AI.
• Governance: Ensuring data quality and structure to prepare the company for AI adoption.

‍

The result: Full control and AI-ready

The transition from fragmented data to an automated platform has transformed the way Enhanced Drilling operates. Hours of manual reporting work each week have now been replaced by up-to-date data available with a single click.
