Private Equity & The Data Mess: One Dashboard to Rule Them All
Consolidation is the name of the game. You bought a plumbing company (uses ServiceTitan). Then an HVAC company (uses Housecall Pro). Then a roofing company (uses a whiteboard).
Now you want a report: "What is our group-wide revenue today?"
The Nightmare
You have an analyst logging into 3 systems, downloading CSVs, and trying to merge them in Excel. By the time you get the report, it's a week old.
The Data Warehouse Solution
You don't need to migrate everyone to the same software. (Migrations are expensive and risky).
You need a Unified Data Layer.
Architecture:
- Extract: We pull data from API A, API B, and API C every hour.
- Normalize: We map "Job Type: Faucet" (Plumbing) and "Job Type: Tune-up" (HVAC) to a standard category: "Service."
- Store: We put it all in a single database (Data Warehouse).
- Visualize: You get one dashboard (PowerBI / Tableau) that shows the whole empire.
The "Cross-Pollination" Win
Once the data is unified, magic happens.
- "Show me all Roofing customers who haven't had an HVAC tune-up."
- Campaign: Email the roofing list with an HVAC offer.
- Result: Free revenue from your own asset base.
Stop the Migration Madness
Don't break what works just to get a report. Move the data, not the people.
