Data Pipelines in Cannock
A typical operation here runs an ERP, a warehouse system, a CRM, a webshop, carrier portals and payroll. Conforming customer and product identity across those is most of the work, and it is why three departments produce three revenue figures.

Cannock · Staffordshire
Distribution and manufacturing on the M6 Toll
Order acknowledgements, picking documentation and delivery paperwork are produced constantly and to a deadline. Small, frequent and relentless is the profile that rewards automation most.
Cannock sits where the M6 Toll, the A5 and the A34 meet, which has made it a natural location for distribution operations wanting motorway access without Birmingham’s congestion.
For this work that lands mainly in Distribution & logistics, Manufacturing & engineering and Trade supply & merchants.

How we work here
What data pipelines looks like in Cannock.
The full scope, phases and deliverables are on the Data Pipelines service page. These are the parts that are specific to working here.
-
Definitions before engineering
A workshop that writes down what revenue, margin, active customer and on-time delivery actually mean. Uncomfortable, and the most valuable phase.
-
Operational metrics that span systems
On-time-in-full, cost per drop and stock turn each need data from two or three systems to calculate honestly.
-
History that outlives a system
Retained in a store you control, so replacing an application later does not cost you your trend data.
-
Reconciled every run
Totals and counts checked against source automatically, with alerts when something fails or looks implausible.
-

Questions
Data Pipelines in Cannock, answered.
The questions businesses in Cannock ask before they commission this work.
Why do our reports disagree with each other?
Almost always because each applies a different definition, not because a system is wrong. Sales may count an order when placed, finance when invoiced, operations when despatched, each treating credits differently. Until those are agreed and implemented in one place, every new dashboard adds a fourth answer.
