Governed metrics
Agreed definitions for key measures, held in one semantic layer that every report uses.
Industry context
BI, analytics and embedded insights in manufacturing
We build analytics on governed definitions, so every dashboard shows the same number for the same measure.
We agree the data model and the governed metrics with the owner of each measure first. Dashboards and reports come next, with access rules that match who may see which data.
Manufacturers depend on plant uptime and safety interlocks, with suppliers spread across several countries. Plant engineers, quality teams and IT/OT owners need changes planned around production schedules and maintenance shutdowns. Dashboards in the region usually need Arabic and English labels and right-to-left layouts, and personal or government data must stay within the hosting and access rules of the UAE PDPL and the Saudi PDPL.
We hand over with runbooks and training, and can stay on under agreed service levels.
Alongside sector regulation, we often map delivery evidence to cross-industry baselines such as the UAE Information Assurance Regulation issued by TDRA, the NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls in Saudi Arabia and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, which many risk reviewers already use.
What the work covers
We design, deliver and stay until operation is stable, with evidence your procurement and risk teams can rely on.
Data model and pipelines
Scheduled pipelines from source systems into a data warehouse, with data quality checks.
Dashboards and access
Reports and dashboards designed with their users, with row-level access rules where data is sensitive.
Industrial and security standards
Where plant systems are involved we design to OT security practice such as IEC 62443 and to national controls such as the UAE Information Assurance Regulation or NCA OTCC in Saudi Arabia, and keep quality records in the form your ISO 9001 or sector auditors review.
Embedded insights
Reports and measures embedded in the applications people already use, with the same definitions.
Bilingual reporting
Arabic and English labels, right-to-left layouts and date and number formats checked on every report.
Signs you are ready to start
An analytics programme is ready to start when leadership names the measures it will run the organisation on.
- Production has agreed the shutdown or low-volume windows available for changes.
- Leadership has agreed which measures matter most and who owns each definition.
- The project team has access to the source systems behind the first measures.
