Unlock Smarter Decisions

Summary

TxMinds supported a major UK player in cash distribution by improving the way large volumes of operational data were processed, structured, and prepared for reporting. Working across the Athena data warehouse and Power BI, the team developed the logic needed to manage complex data accurately, making it easier to bring trusted information into a single place for reporting and visualization. This led to a 25% reduction in report generation and data preparation time and a 20% improvement in data processing and validation efficiency, helping teams access clearer insights faster and make better operational decisions.

Overview

The client is a major force in the UK cash management space, operating at the centre of the country’s cash cycle. Established in 2007, the business describes itself as a world-recognised leader in efficient cash services and the largest member of the Bank of England’s note circulation scheme. Its operations support the secure storage, counting, quality checking, and redistribution of notes and coins, helping maintain access to cash across the UK.

To support the reporting needs of an operation of this scale, TxMinds stepped in with specialist data engineering and reporting expertise. Working within the existing data environment, the team focused on strengthening the reporting backbone by developing robust data logic, improving consistency across data flows, and making information easier for business teams to use in dashboards and reports. This helped create a stronger foundation for day-to-day operational visibility and planning.

Overview

Challenges

With large volumes of operational data moving through different systems, the client needed a more dependable way to prepare accurate information for reporting and day-to-day decision-making.

Data processing

Managing Large Data Volumes

The scale of data being processed made reporting more demanding, especially where complex logic was needed to organise and prepare information correctly.

Database

Data Spread Across Systems

Relevant data existed in different places, which made it harder to bring everything together into a clear and usable format for reporting.

Analysis

Slow Report Preparation

A lot of effort went into getting data ready for dashboards and reports, which slowed down turnaround time and reduced reporting efficiency.

Data quality

Difficulty Maintaining Accuracy

With high data volumes and multiple reporting requirements, checking data quality and ensuring consistency across outputs was not always straightforward.

Visibility issue

Limited Operational Visibility

Without timely and well-structured reporting, it was more difficult for teams to get the visibility they needed to support planning and resource allocation.


Solutions

TxMinds put in place a focused data engineering and reporting approach to help the client manage large volumes of data more effectively and make that data easier to use for reporting and analysis.

Data warehouse

Built a Strong Data Foundation in Athena

The team worked within the Athena data warehouse to organise and prepare data in a more structured way, giving the business a central place to work from for reporting needs.

Data transformation

Developed Complex SQL Logic

To handle the scale and complexity of the data, TxMinds created the SQL logic needed to transform raw information into formats that could be used confidently in reports and dashboards.

Data validation

Strengthened Data Validation

Checks were built into the process to improve data accuracy and consistency, helping reduce reporting issues and giving users greater confidence in the outputs.

Data analytics dashboard

Prepared Data for Power BI Reporting

The data was shaped in a way that made it easier to use in Power BI, supporting smoother dashboard development and clearer reporting for business teams.

Data pipeline

Delivered with Dual Expertise

Because the team brought experience in both SQL and reporting tools, they were able to support not only report creation but also the quality and reliability of the data behind it.
