Orion · Data and automation platform
Consolidate credit data and automate routine tasks.
Orion is data-agnostic. It collects data from custodians, agents, administrators and internal systems, holds it in one consistent data model and automates the routine operational tasks that depend on that data.
How it works
How Orion turns source data into automated processes.
Collect
Orion retrieves files, reports and feeds on a schedule, including from portals that offer only a manual download.
Standardize
Each source is mapped to one data model, so that a position carries the same meaning in every report.
Calculate
The calculations a client requires, such as life-to-date P&L, are performed as data arrives.
Automate
Routine tasks are scheduled and linked in sequence, and exceptions are routed to a person.
Capabilities
What Orion provides.
- Source-agnostic collection
- Orion can connect to any data source or application, whether it provides data through a feed, a file or a web portal.
- A consistent data model
- Positions, cash and activity are held in a single structure that is the same across funds and counterparties.
- Configurable calculation
- Calculations are configured to each client’s own definitions and run continuously.
- Process automation
- Orion automates repetitive operational tasks and identifies exceptions at the step where they arise.
The interface
Designed around the daily work.
The views in Orion follow the sequence an operations team actually works in: what requires attention today, who owns it and what is outstanding.
Diagrams on this page are illustrative and use sample figures.

What changes
Automate routine data tasks that are often done by hand.
| Task | Common practice | With Orion |
|---|---|---|
| Custodian reports | Often downloaded by staff each morning | Retrieved on schedule before the team begins |
| Performance figures | Typically rebuilt in a workbook on request | Calculated continuously from loaded data |
| A new data source | Usually another worksheet and set of lookups | Mapped once to the existing model |
| Data errors | Often discovered later, downstream | Identified at the step where they occur |
Enterprise readiness
Integration, implementation, controls and support.
Orion is implemented and supported by Dacumen practitioners.
- Integration
- Orion connects to custodians, agents, administrators and internal applications regardless of the format in which they provide data. Its output is available to downstream systems and reports.
- Implementation
- Dacumen practitioners lead the implementation. They map each source, configure the calculations and schedules, and validate the loaded data, then run Orion in parallel with the existing process before cutover.
- Controls
- Each job run is logged with its inputs, outputs and exceptions, providing a record of what was processed and when.
- Support
- Clients are supported directly by the team that develops and operates the product.
