Challenge Fragmented Data Slowed Decisions
Center Street Lending (CSL), a lender serving real estate investors across 42 states, struggled with siloed systems and manual reporting. Teams lacked a shared view of key metrics, making collaboration difficult and delaying stakeholder buy-in. Executives spent valuable time gathering data manually, leaving leadership without timely, actionable insights. CSL needed a trusted partner to unify their data environment, improve KPI accuracy, and streamline communication across the organization.
Solution: Centralized Snowflake Data Warehouse
Sparq consolidated and transformed fragmented data sources into a secure, scalable data warehouse on Snowflake:
- Deep Discovery: Analyzed user stories and workflows to clarify the most critical business questions.
- Centralized Repository: Established a robust reporting environment for accurate, accessible visualizations.
- Light Data Modeling: Created modular, consistent entities for flexibility without rigid enterprise constraints.
- Streamlined Communication: Delivered a single source of truth to align executives, stakeholders, and teams.
Results: Faster Insights, Better Collaboration
The unified data warehouse eliminated silos, improved accuracy, and enabled seamless visualizations from one location. CSL’s CEO gained real-time access to critical metrics for faster, better-informed decisions. Streamlined reporting reduced meetings and manual tasks - saving executives 25-30 hours per week - and positioned CSL with a future-ready analytics foundation.
