Turning complex data
into actionable insights
at Bionerga

Bionerga is a Belgian company committed to sustainability, transforming waste into energy, heat, compost, and other valuable products. In an increasingly complex data landscape, Bionerga faced a common challenge: their existing reporting environment was complex and entangled. With the migration of their ERP-system, they had the perfect trigger to also modernize their data environment.

Our solution

To help Bionerga modernize its data platform we applied our proven blueprint for building a future-ready data foundation. This approach supports a smarter and more structured way of working with data where information is clearly described, traceable and easier to manage. We tailored the solution to work seamlessly with Microsoft’s new platform Fabric and integrated Dagster as the engine to monitor and coordinate data flows.

By working with Microsoft Fabric from the early stages we built valuable firsthand expertise. While the platform was still evolving, we explored its capabilities and limits through detailed testing. Where needed, we designed creative workarounds to make the platform robust and reliable ensuring that Bionerga could already benefit from its dynamic features without waiting for the platform to be fully mature.

Flexible and scalable by design

One of the key advantages of Microsoft Fabric is its flexibility. It grows with your organization, offers centralized access to all essential tools, and allows for a modular and scalable setup. Thanks to this flexibility we have developed a reusable template that will make it much easier to roll out similar solutions in the future.

Throughout the project we closely followed the ongoing development of Microsoft, refining our approach as the platform evolved. This allowed us to stay ahead of new developments and build a strong technical foundation for Bionerga not only for today’s needs but also for the future.
From complex data flows to clear, actionable insights.
Scalable and reliable, ready for the future.

Visibility and control
with Dagster

An important challenge at the start was gaining visibility into how data was flowing through the system. That is where Dagster came in. Dagster acts as a smart control center for everything that happens in the data platform. It tracks every step from collecting the data to refreshing dashboards and gives users a clear user-friendly overview. This improves monitoring and reliability and helps teams understand how the data is used and maintained. Dagster also makes it easy to quickly plug-in new data environments from new companies joining the Bionerga group.

Data that drives decisions

Finally, we created several new Power BI datasets based on best practices. These are now used in reliable reports that support smarter and faster decision-making across Bionerga. These datasets make it also possible for self-service users to quickly explore the validated data.
