Project Overview
| Project Details | |
|---|---|
| Project Title | Realogic Analytics |
| Project Synopsis |
What is the challenge or opportunity you are trying to address within your organization? We are currently in the process of creating a data warehouse for the entire organization (all divisions). The goal is to pull all the various data sources: operations, finance, HR, social media and put in one place. We're also thinking of pulling relevant external data sources. Even before the data warehouse is fully populated, we've started created reports and dashboards that give us a real-time (or near real-time) picture of how the company is doing on all fronts. This work has barely started but there's still a lot to do. Once the data is all there, we are planning to create more advanced reports and products that leverage it in ways that require multiple sources (for example, automated way to schedule nurses for facilities).
What are some of the activities or action items you think will need to be taken to achieve your desired results? From a high level our goal is to allow us to see where the various departments in the organization are in real time. In terms of specifics, we would like to create a set of analyses (dashboards, reports, visualizations) that leverage the existing data and allow us to understand where things are. We currently have three data sources in the warehouse (and adding more):
For example, one interesting question would leverage the LinkedIn page data and would aim to answer "How are our engagement levels looking, month to month, across every criteria - likes, shares, comments - for every one of the pages?" "Are there any trends that seem to affect engagement?" What would make this project a success for your organization? What measurable results are you looking to accomplish? Ideally, this project will create analyses that truly represent where the organization is. The goal would be to create something that our staff will find useful and want to engage with, and more so, want to make an integral part of their work. Furthermore, if this project could help shed some lights on elements that may not be obvious and our staff may not be aware of, this would truly be a win. In terms of measurable results

Description:
Hello Udi, I think this is a good project. The key is to study your data for visualizations and dashboards. Can you please share the dataset (even if it is small and incomplete)? We can also view multiple data sets and their interconnections on a dashboard. Thank you!
