EAG, a trusted consulting and outsourcing firm for upstream energy and midstream sectors since 2003, has long stood out for its exceptional client rehire rate and industry referrals. Now, EAG is marking a significant milestone: the launch of its first commercial product, EAG Foundations, a transformative platform that enhances data accessibility and self-service analytics for energy operators. Watch a video about it here.
The Evolution: From IT Dependency to Self-Service Analytics
Historically, energy operators relied heavily on IT departments to access structured reports. This method was time-consuming and rigid. Today’s workforce, however, demands real-time access and the autonomy to perform their own data analysis. EAG Foundations meets this demand head on.
Foundations delivers a data warehouse as a service, connects with common industry applications, and provides standardized Power BI reports. This allows clients to go from limited data capabilities to a full-fledged analytics platform in just hours.
Quorum: The Cornerstone of a Smarter Platform
At the heart of Foundations lies a strategic collaboration with Quorum. EAG builds its Power BI reporting capabilities directly on Quorum’s Data Hub, eliminating the need for complex data warehousing. This partnership brings direct access to Quorum's experts, ensuring data is modeled for easy integration and analysis.
The synergy stems from a shared philosophy: data should empower clients, not constrain them. “Quorum has truly embraced the idea of making data accessible to their clients,” said Dave Supp, Chief Digital Officer at EAG. “Their openness supports the rise of citizen data scientists and aligns perfectly with our mission.”
Real-World Impact: Improved Governance and Collaboration
Clients already live on Foundations are seeing substantial benefits. They report improved data governance, a single source of truth, and validated, shareable reports. The platform’s flexibility even enables secure report sharing with partners, streamlining what were once manual, inefficient processes.
The Road Ahead: Scaling with Innovation and Integration
EAG has ambitious plans for Foundations. Enhancements will include deeper integration with tools like OpenInvoice, the addition of spatial data visualization, and expanding into new verticals such as production accounting and full well lifecycle management.
Continued close collaboration with Quorum is key to these advancements. Together, they are preparing for the evolution of Quorum's On Demand services and ensuring that Foundations remains agile and robust as the underlying data models evolve.
A Lasting Partnership
With EAG Foundations and its foundational partnership with Quorum, the energy industry is entering a new era of data empowerment. This collaboration is more than a technical alignment, it is a shared vision to democratize data and drive operational excellence.
