Silos exist for a reason → As workarounds.
Need solutions that scale → Can’t be manual.
Need proven, practical solutions → Not never-ending transformations.

EXAMPLES OF BEST PRACTICES
15
IT aligned with business units to
understand needs, then aggregated data
across merchants, customers, and dashers to fully
understand the health of the business
IT understood marketing objectives,
then created ROI Engine, which turned
data across marketing, sales, and 3rd party sources into
insights shared frequently internally
and externally
CRO understood a gap in ability to
attribute impact to specific marketing
strategies and proactively worked with IT to deliver
self-serve dashboards to the team
Data science team shared gap in ability to understand drivers of
merchant lifetime value, then worked with IT to aggregate
relevant data sources to support AI/ML around ‘next best
action’

● BI: Stale, aggregated data moved from DL to DW and into Tableau for reporting
● Stalled or delayed ad-hoc queries and data science due to concurrent ETL and workloads
● Excess time and resources spent on managing infrastructure vs. analytics
