Bringing Scattered Data Into One Reporting-Ready Database
Organisations frequently hold data across spreadsheets, legacy systems and separate departmental tools. Forumly aggregates this into a single, consistent database structure that can actually be reported on.
Turning scattered sources into one consistent dataset
Data Collection
Gathering data from each existing source, whatever format it currently sits in.
Data Cleaning
Correcting inconsistent, incomplete or incorrectly formatted entries before consolidation.
Deduplication
Identifying and merging duplicate records created by overlapping sources.
Normalisation
Standardising formats, naming conventions and field structures across sources.
Structured Imports
Importing cleaned data into a properly structured destination database.
Validation
Checking aggregated data against expected rules and ranges before it goes live.
Consolidation
Bringing everything together into a single source of truth.
Reporting-Ready Databases
A final structure organised so reports and dashboards can be built on it directly.
When aggregation is usually needed
Database aggregation projects are common after a merger or acquisition, when multiple locations have each kept their own records, or when a business has grown faster than its original spreadsheet-based tracking could support.
