Business Driver

A leading healthcare system in Texas, with a network of 68,000 doctors, employees, and volunteers, aimed to optimize operational costs while aligning with its strategic initiative to migrate its data platform to Azure. The organization faced the challenge of manually migrating 3,472 Tableau reports—each consisting of an average of four tabs and six visuals per tab—making the transition to Power BI a critical, yet financially daunting, task. The need for a cost-effective, efficient migration solution became paramount to achieve this transformation without incurring prohibitive costs.

 

What KPI Delivered

KPI Partners provided a fully automated solution through its 'Tableau to Power BI Utility,' enabling seamless conversion of all Tableau reports and metadata. KPI implemented a structured data pipeline, ensuring that data flowed efficiently through various layers, from ingestion to transformation and preparation for reporting in Power BI. At each stage of this pipeline, KPI's 'Data Validator' tool was employed to verify the accuracy of the data, validate transformations, and maintain consistency before it reached the reporting layer. This robust validation process ensured data integrity throughout the migration, aligning with the healthcare system's high standards for data quality. As a result, the migration was completed on schedule, within budget, and with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

 

Business Benefits

KPI’s automated solution delivered substantial value to the healthcare system:

  • 75% cost reduction compared to manual conversion methods
  • 72% faster migration timeline compared to traditional manual efforts
  • Assurance of data accuracy and integrity at every stage through the 'Data Validator' tool, resulting in consistent and reliable reporting
  • Consolidation of existing reports into Power BI, improving operational efficiency
