Overview

RMA Logistics, a regional hub for DHL, needed to bridge fragmented on-premise data systems with cloud infrastructure. NexOps designed and implemented a hybrid Azure Databricks environment that centralised scattered data sources — Excel files, local databases, and siloed departmental systems — and automated manual data-intensive processes using AI and machine learning, enabling real-time data processing, predictive analytics, and intelligent decision-making across the organisation.

Approach

METHODOLOGY

  • 01

    Architected a hybrid Azure Databricks solution with VPN tunnels, ExpressRoute, and private endpoints for secure on-premise to cloud connectivity

  • 02

    Built a unified Databricks Lakehouse eliminating scattered Excel files, local databases, and siloed data sources, connecting multiple regional distribution centres

  • 03

    Automated invoice processing workflows using AI-powered document extraction and classification, financial reconciliation, and daily/weekly/monthly operational reporting — replacing manual Excel-based processes

  • 04

    Implemented AI-driven anomaly detection on Databricks, real-time performance dashboards, and self-service analytics enabling business users to access data independently

  • 05

    Deployed Databricks ML models for demand forecasting and shipment volume prediction across distribution centres

  • 06

    Established Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines and Terraform IaC for automated deployment and hybrid infrastructure management

Results

OUTCOMES

  • 99.5% time reduction — invoice processing reduced from 2 days of manual work to under 10 seconds

  • Eliminated data silos — unified fragmented sources into a Databricks Lakehouse as single source of truth across the organisation

  • AI-driven demand forecasting enabling proactive resource allocation across distribution centres

  • Enabled real-time operational insights previously requiring days of manual data compilation

  • Reduced operational costs through AI automation and elimination of manual data processing
