Retired the BI suite and cut $5M a year.
A large payer replaced its BI and intelligence stack with one connected environment for data access, analysis, and reporting.
Challenge
The questions
- 01Which capabilities could be consolidated into one solution?
- 02How could established definitions and business logic be preserved?
- 03What could be retired while maintaining the reporting the business relied on?
A large payer relied on an enterprise intelligence stack to move data, define measures, produce reports, and support business decisions. Delivering that capability required multiple tools and the ongoing effort to maintain the connections between them.
The cost extended beyond software. Teams had to manage data preparation, reconcile definitions, maintain reports, and coordinate changes across the environment. Business requests inherited that delivery burden.
Even familiar measures could require reconciliation when different reports used different populations, dates, or calculation rules. Each additional tool introduced another place where business meaning needed to be maintained.
Solution
Flume replaced the payer’s existing BI and intelligence stack with a connected environment for data access, analysis, and reporting.
ContextBase provided the shared understanding of sources, business definitions, and rules that supported those functions. Reports and investigations could use the same reviewed logic, reducing the need to rebuild meaning across separate tools and workflows.
Impact
$5M
Lower annual operating cost
Against the annual cost of running the stack it replaced.
- The payer supports its intelligence needs in one environment, without the cost and maintenance of the replaced stack.
- Reports and investigations read the same reviewed definitions.
- New dashboards and investigations start from established definitions, and every measure keeps an explanation of how it was produced.
