Not just saving money, but extracting value from data

The right balance between a proven technology stack and strict security requirements

Moving Intelligence deliberately sought a proven, standardised approach using tools such as dbt and Dagster, supplemented by dashboarding and a cloud-based data warehouse. Mark Wolfs: “That is precisely what Blenddata offers at its core, and why it was such a good fit.”

Security requirements

“We consider information security to be of the utmost importance at Moving Intelligence. Our cloud security team therefore insisted that all data remain within our own infrastructure. This meant that all tools also had to be deployed within our own infrastructure. This required flexibility from Blenddata and close collaboration with our cloud team, but everything was up and running within a week.”

Immediate value from data

“Thanks to this platform, for example, we now have a single, clear definition of churn rather than different definitions for each product. This ensures consistent reporting and also provides better insight at group level. In addition, we now have real-time visibility of operational developments. Whereas these used to only become apparent in periodic reports, we can now make immediate adjustments. For example, you can see immediately if the number of connected vehicles at a customer’s site is falling. This allows our account managers to act on it straight away. That shifts the commercial approach from reactive to structurally proactive.”

Working autonomously and coordinating where necessary

The platform has been deliberately designed to be transferable. Moving Intelligence retains control over its own environment and can manage it itself or outsource it to another party. This flexibility makes the solution future-proof and independent. This aligns with how Blenddata develops platforms: scalable, transferable and built for the long term.

Business to data

Mark on the collaboration. “Translating business logic into a data model is crucial in a project like this, and Blenddata did that well. They took the initiative on their own, referred things back to us where necessary, and kept the project moving. They are people who really know their stuff and work independently. Data engineer Rens was incredibly productive and kept the project moving forward. As a result, the timeline was never really an issue.”
