Abstract

The Retirement Fund (Incorporated), also known as KWAP, is a statutory body that manages the pension scheme for Malaysia’s public employees. KWAP has over 550K members. Before the implementation of online data transfer (ODS) in KWAP, finance and management reporting were extracted from the production table. Because everything (dashboard and reporting) was extracted from the main system, the main system or application was impacted and became slow or crushed, so they decided to implement ODS. The data was gathered by the ODS from the main database. The management requires a live dashboard to access the target files or cases to be processed and then display how many cases the operation team has processed. This dashboard will be used to track all progress. However, the live dashboard is not available. However, the live dashboard is inconvenient for reporting because of many inaccurate data in the ODS module. The data warehouse provides a solid platform for integration of the historical data to facilitate information processing systems to produce the information that can be used to support the analytical purpose. Currently, KWAP implementing the ODS concept to handle pensioners’ personal and data transactions. For that, this research focuses on how to implement a data warehouse by proposing a data warehouse design to handle pensioner data at KWAP by moving all reporting part that uses the ODS to the data mart.
