The challenge

Licensing data was fragmented across legacy systems, limiting Ajman DED's ability to report on economic activity and respond to federal data-sharing requests.

Our approach

  • Built a federated data governance model with stewards per domain
  • Designed a cloud-native analytics platform with managed services
  • Migrated 11 source systems into a unified semantic layer
  • Stood up 9 executive dashboards aligned to KPIs

Outcomes

  • Single source of truth for licensing and economic activity
  • Federal data-sharing requests answered in hours, not weeks
  • Self-service analytics adopted across 6 departments

"We finally have one number we can all agree on."
