Description
A company is looking for an experienced BI expert to take on the full design and implementation of a BI stack for a multi-stage contribution margin calculation. The data source is the ERP system Abas, and the task includes data extraction, transformation, and the reporting front end. Tool decisions will be made in close coordination with the project lead and the company.
The goal of the project is to develop an automated solution for calculating and displaying contribution margins (CMI-IV) based on variable and fixed cost blocks as well as a cost center / cost object logic.

- Definition and documentation of the technical requirements together with controlling, IT, and project management
- Selection, justification, and setup of the appropriate BI tool stack (ETL, data model, reporting)
- Development of a multi-stage contribution margin calculation (CMI–IV) based on the existing concept
- Mapping of variable and fixed cost blocks incl. cost center / cost object logic from Abas in different views and hierarchy levels
- Setup of automated, regular data refresh logic without manual intervention
- Documentation of the overall solution and knowledge transfer to internal users
