Challenge
As a trusted leader in managed logistics, Transportation Insight (TI), a Beon company, delivers data-driven solutions to some of North America’s largest shippers. With growing demand for faster insights, real-time visibility and advanced analytics, TI identified a strategic opportunity to modernize its data infrastructure.
While their legacy ETL system had supported years of growth, it began to show limitations under the weight of rising data volume and complexity. Long processing times, high licensing fees and a lack of scalability were creating friction in client reporting and operational decision-making. TI turned to Bridgenext to design and implement a more agile, cloud-native architecture that could support its evolving needs and ambitious roadmap.

- Conducted a thorough evaluation of TI’s legacy data ecosystem
- Mapped near-term goals and long-term vision to a future-ready architecture
- Modern ETL Framework Implementation
- Replaced legacy ETL with a scalable solution using Databricks Delta Lake and Azure Data Factory
- Integrated on-premises SQL Server with Snowflake in the cloud for streamlined hybrid data processing
- Data Engineering & Report Migration
- Migrated 350+ ETL mappings, 5 workflows and 1,500 client reports to the new platform
- Enabled incremental processing and unified data storage for improved performance and accuracy
- Application Modernization & Support
- Provided technical support for key delivery integrations (FedEx, UPS, DHL)
