Data Platform Expert Platform for Corporate and Non-Financial Reporting

About the Product

Data Platform is a SaaS reporting and data management platform that helps companies collect, validate, review, approve, and consolidate information for the preparation of annual reports, sustainability reports, integrated reports.

We combine robust technology with Fanda’s decades of reporting expertise to help organisations manage and improve their reporting processes, adapting to any framework, standard, or disclosure requirement.

Data Platform is more than just a software solution. It is a collaborative environment where technology and expert guidance work together to ensure that every figure, narrative disclosure, supporting document, and approval is accurately collected, verified, tracked, and incorporated into your corporate reporting.

Why It Matters

Preparing corporate reports today requires coordinating numerous business processes, reporting standards, and internal teams. Tight deadlines, inconsistent data formats, and fragmented methodologies often result in:

  • Unclear ownership of data collection and verification.
  • Different departments using inconsistent approaches and reporting templates.
  • Limited visibility into project status, approval progress, and document versions.
  • Delays and errors that affect both report quality and delivery timelines.
  • Difficulties preparing supporting evidence for internal and external assurance.

Data Platform provides a single, structured workspace for everyone involved in the reporting process, eliminating bottlenecks, reducing errors, preventing data loss, and ensuring full visibility, accountability, transparency, and consistency throughout the project.

How Data Platform Works

Platform Configuration

A dedicated reporting expert works closely with your team to define reporting objectives, disclosure standards, and required KPIs. Based on these requirements, we configure a tailored set of indicators, workflows, and reporting templates aligned with your company’s structure and reporting needs.

Assignment of Responsibilities

Each participant receives role-based access with clear deadlines, automated notifications, and embedded guidance on calculation methodologies and reporting requirements.

Data Collection

Contributors enter information through standardised forms and can upload supporting documents and evidence for each disclosure, provide comments where necessary, and collaborate directly within the platform.

Monitoring and Collaboration

Project managers monitor real-time progress through an interactive dashboard, tracking project progress, overdue tasks, approvals, and outstanding requests.

Each metric contains its own discussion thread, version history, methodology, and supporting documentation, allowing contributors and Fanda experts to collaborate in one place.

Validation and Export

Information moves through configurable review and approval workflows, ensuring every disclosure is validated before publication.

The platform consolidates collected information before exporting it into Microsoft Word (.docx), Microsoft Excel (.xlsx), XBRL, and other reporting outputs.
