A three-day close
Finance waits while figures are pulled from separate systems and checked by hand.
Connect the sources and schedule the close report.

The cost of manual reporting
Are you still wrestling with these?
Small reporting tasks become a weekly operating system. The fix starts with the hand-offs between your data sources, models, and reports.
Stale sales views
The dashboard reaches the team after the useful decision window has passed.
Refresh on schedule and publish the current view automatically.
Conflicting KPIs
Departments use different definitions for revenue, margin, and pipeline.
Create one governed semantic model for every department.
One-person knowledge
A critical refresh process stops when the person who built it is unavailable.
Document the workflow, monitor it, and alert the right owner.
A practical operating model
Our BI automation blueprint
We map the current process first. Then we remove the manual steps that create delays, inconsistency, and avoidable errors.
Audit
Map reports and data sources
We review report owners, refresh rules, SQL sources, spreadsheets, connectors, and the points where people copy figures between systems.
Standardise
Set one semantic model
Revenue, margin, conversion, and other core KPIs receive clear definitions and shared dimensions across departments.
Automate
Build the ETL workflow
Power Query, Google Apps Script, Python, or your existing orchestration tools can move and prepare data on a dependable schedule.
Distribute
Publish where people work
Reports can be sent through email, Teams, SharePoint, or secure embedded links with the right audience and timing.
Monitor
Watch refresh health
Failure alerts, ownership rules, and refresh logs give your team a clear response path when a source changes or a job stops.
Platform-specific delivery
Deep automation for your BI stack
Keep the tools your analysts know. We make the work around them repeatable.

Proof in the process
50 client reports, one dependable routine
A Singapore marketing agency had junior staff updating 50 Looker Studio reports every week. Dass & Devan Synapse connected the data sources, standardised the templates, and scheduled delivery to each client.
The team stopped treating reporting as a recurring emergency.

hours saved each week

client reports on schedule
"Our reporting team now reviews the numbers instead of checking whether every report was refreshed. Clients receive the same clear update on the same day."

Clear answers for BI teams
BI automation questions, answered
Can you automate reports built in Excel, or only cloud BI tools?
Excel can be part of the workflow when it has a clear role. We can connect structured workbooks, replace fragile copy-paste steps, and publish the resulting figures into Power BI, Looker Studio, or Tableau.
Will automated reports still allow our team to drill down?
Yes. Automation handles the refresh and distribution; your existing permissions, filters, drill-through pages, and interactive views remain available to authorised users.
How do you handle data from on-premise SQL servers?
We assess gateway, network, credential, and refresh requirements during the audit. The workflow can combine on-premise SQL data with cloud sources while keeping access controlled.
What if a data source changes? Do we need to redo everything?
No. We document dependencies and add monitoring around the hand-off. A changed field or connector can then be isolated, assessed, and corrected without rebuilding every report.
