Making Smart Buildings Smarter for Facility Solutions Group in Partnership with Embeddable

At Rittman Analytics, we're always excited to partner with innovative companies that are pushing the boundaries of what's possible with data and analytics. That's why we're thrilled to spotlight our collaboration with Embeddable, a powerful embedded analytics platform that's becoming increasingly popular with organisations looking to integrate data visualizations and reporting capabilities into their SaaS applications.

Embeddable: The Developer's Toolkit for Seamlessly-Integrated Analytics Experiences

Embeddable offers a unique approach to embedded analytics, providing developers with the tools to create beautiful, pixel-perfect dashboards that seamlessly blend with their existing applications. By leveraging Embeddable's technology, teams can build fast, interactive, and fully-custom analytics experiences in just a fraction of the time it would typically take.

Key features of Embeddable include:

  1. No-code Dashboard Builder: Easily create and customize dashboards without the need for coding or IT support.

  2. Native Look and Feel: Data visualization components that can be defined and edited in code to match your application's exact design.

  3. Scalability and Integration: Connects to popular databases and cloud data warehouses with an embedded business semantic layer.

  4. Cube Integration: Utilizes Cube's open-source semantic model and caching service for optimal performance and data consistency.

Case Study: FSG Smart Buildings Transforms Facility Management

We recently partnered with Embeddable to enable Austin, Texas-based Facility Solutions Group (FSG) to surface key performance indicators (KPIs) and reporting tables in Chariot, their client-facing Building Automation System.

FSG needed to make their collected data more actionable and easier to consume for their clients, particularly those in the convenience store sector. Their existing system required clients to have spreadsheet skills and work with fragmented data extracts, limiting their ability to gain a holistic view of business operations, tenant behavior, and financial performance.

Rittman Analytics was engaged to lead the technical implementation of Embeddable and guide FSG's team through the process of delivering embedded application analytics. Our approach included:

  1. Creating placeholder Embeddable KPIs that could be surfaced in advance of finalizing specific business logic.

  2. Embedding these KPIs in a prototype version of the customer-facing application.

  3. Collaborating with Embeddable to define requirements and a development roadmap.

  4. Modeling and warehousing FSG's high-volume smart buildings event data.

  5. Defining a rich, descriptive business semantic layer over the warehoused data.

  6. Orchestrating and scheduling the data pipeline using Dagster Cloud for up-to-date client data.

The implementation of Embeddable, guided by Rittman Analytics, significantly improved how FSG's clients interact with their data. The solution provided a holistic view of business operations, tenant behavior, and financial performance, enhancing operational efficiency and enabling more effective buildings management.

Adam Haynes, Chief Product Officer at FSG, praised the collaboration: "Rittman Analytics was able to do what seemed impossible. With only hours of spin-up, they dove head-first into the work with our team at FSG. Their incredible team brought structure and strategy to the newly developing discipline of data analytics within FSG."
