What I set up for you
- One central place for your data. Data from your ERP, online store, WMS, CRM and accounting comes together automatically in a data warehouse.
- Consistent definitions. What is revenue, what is margin, when is an order delivered? We define that once, so every report gives the same answer.
- Dashboards and reports. An up-to-date overview of inventory, margins, sales and customer data, for example in Power BI.
- Automatic refresh. The data is updated on a fixed schedule, depending on the use case.
- Secure by design. Access control, encryption and backups, so everyone only sees what they need.
I work with tools including BigQuery, Databricks, SQL databases and Power BI. Which tools fit best depends on your systems and your budget.
Figures you can steer by
A dashboard is only useful when it answers the questions you ask every week. In the supply chain, these are often the ones.
- Inventory turnover. How fast does your stock turn, per product or product group?
- Slow-moving stock. Which items have been sitting still for months and are costing you money?
- Delivery reliability. How many orders do you deliver complete and on time?
- Lead time per supplier. Which supplier delivers late, and how often?
- Margin per product and channel. Where do you really make money, and where don’t you?
- Stock below minimum. A signal before a product sells out.
Which figures matter for you, we decide together in the analysis.
Do you actually need a data warehouse?
Honest advice first. Do you work with one system and a few fixed reports? Then a dashboard directly on that system is often enough. In that case, that's what I'll recommend.
A data warehouse pays off when
- you want to combine data from multiple systems;
- reporting currently takes a lot of manual work or reports contradict each other;
- you want to keep history that your source systems don’t keep (long enough);
- you want to grow towards better forecasting, such as inventory planning.
Not sure? In the introductory call you’ll hear right away what makes sense in your situation.
How I work
- Introduction. We discuss which questions you want to answer with your data and which systems you use. Free and without obligation.
- Analysis and proposal. I map what you want to see, how it’s calculated and where it comes from. You get a concrete proposal with a price.
- Build and verify. I set up the data warehouse, connect your sources and build the first dashboards. Together we check the numbers against what you know today, so you can trust them.
- Go-live and management. I show your team how to use the dashboards. After go-live I keep an eye on the data processing. If a source system changes or you want a new report, I adjust it.
What does a data warehouse cost?
You pay a fixed project price. Most projects fall between €1,000 and €5,000 (excl. VAT), depending on the number of sources and reports. After that you can choose fixed monthly management of €150 to €500 (excl. VAT) for monitoring, maintenance and adjustments.
On top of that you pay the cost of the platform itself, such as cloud storage or Power BI licences. For an SME these are often limited; you’ll see them listed separately in the proposal.
After the introductory call you’ll get a clear price estimate. No surprises. See all pricing
Why Tovy
- One point of contact. You work directly with the engineer who builds your data warehouse. No account managers or middle layers.
- Supply chain, not just finance. With a background in business administration and supply chain management, I look beyond the annual figures, at inventory, lead times and margins per product.
- Independent of any single package. I combine data from whichever systems you use.
- Based in Breda. I work with SMEs. Anywhere in the Netherlands or the EU. Often remote, but also on site when the travel distance is reasonable.
- Documented and transferable. Everything I build is documented, so you stay in control.
