Predictive Analytics & Business Intelligence Platform (Fixed Price)

The Challenge

A financial services firm needed to better predict market trends and customer churn by leveraging their vast, underutilized datasets. Existing BI tools lacked predictive capabilities and geospatial insights.

Key Objectives

  • Develop accurate predictive models for customer churn and market forecasting.
  • Integrate diverse data sources into a unified analytics platform.
  • Provide interactive BI dashboards with drill-down capabilities.
  • Incorporate GIS-enabled visualizations for regional performance analysis.
  • Empower non-technical users to explore data and gain insights.

Our Solution Highlights

We built a Python-based analytics platform using TensorFlow for ML model development and Flask for API delivery. Data from various sources was aggregated into a data lake on AWS. Power BI and Grafana were used for interactive dashboards, with ArcGIS Online integration for geospatial visualizations.
