    • • Restructuring of ETL/ELT processes, with offloading of some transformations to SQL to lighten Informatica and improve overall performance.
    • • Harmonization and re-use of the data model used by the ERP modules (customers, orders, invoices, accounting entries) to make transformations more consistent and stable.
