Dango – Automated Reporting System
75% reduction in reporting time – 12-week engagement replacing a 4-day manual workflow with an automated pipeline for Dango.
THE PROBLEM
Stuck in a maze of manual data processing
Every Monday the same loop: pull, reconcile, format, distribute. Analysts spent four days a week on a report that should take one hour.
- Three siloed data sources reconciled by hand – no shared schema, no API, no source of truth.
- Twelve stakeholders blocked every week, waiting for finance before they could move.
- Zero audit trail on the numbers that landed on the board’s desk.
Dango – automated reporting that runs while your team sleeps
A self-serve pipeline that ingests, validates, and ships your weekly reports – no analyst intervention needed.
Automated ingestion
We map how your team handles each data source, then automate retrieval, cleaning, and validation. Reports generate themselves in 1 day instead of 4.
Schema unification
Three legacy systems mapped to a single canonical model. Cross-source joins run on demand instead of overnight.
Auditable pipeline
Every transformation logged, every error surfaced at the source. Audit logs are queryable – reviewers don’t wait on engineering.
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE
One workspace, every report
The reports view – every output, every run, one source of truth.
How we shipped it
Twelve weeks, three phases. No mystery.
Weeks 1–3
Discovery & data audit
Mapped every report source, traced the manual steps, scoped the schema gaps. No code yet – just the truth about how reporting actually worked.
Weeks 4–9
Pipeline + schema build
Built the ingestion layer, unified the canonical model, wired validation. Reports started running unattended in week 8 against a live mirror.
Weeks 10–12
Cutover + audit trail
Production switch with the analyst team shadow-checking every output. Compliance sign-off on the audit logs. Zero rollback events.
Results
Same reports. A quarter of the time.
