Regulatory financial reporting
on Databricks.
Solution architecture, Unity Catalog governance, and Prophecy integration for a major Australian bank's EFS regulatory reporting — designing for traceability and auditability in a highly governed enterprise.

A strategic platform without the in-house expertise.
A major Australian bank is transforming its data ecosystem to enhance the quality, traceability, and governance of its EFS reporting — driven by concerns around the consistency and auditability of existing processes. To address this, they selected Databricks as a strategic platform but lacked the in-house expertise to design it within their complex, highly governed enterprise environment. The Data Platform Team had limited experience with the Databricks Platform.
Architect the platform. Govern it from day one.
BI3 provided a solution architect to lead the design of the bank's Databricks platform — defining data sourcing patterns, ingestion frameworks, CI/CD architecture for future scalability, Unity Catalog for governance, and Prophecy integration. Technical business analysts with deep banking expertise supported the discovery and strategic analysis of existing EFS reports and metrics.
