The Monday infrastructure report that breaks every week despite repeated fixes

The situation this course is for

Every Monday, the same report fails due to mismatched data sources, outdated scripts, and undocumented dependencies. You or someone on your team spends hours reworking it manually, pulling data from three systems, reconciling naming inconsistencies, and reformatting outputs for stakeholders. This pattern repeats weekly, consuming time better spent on optimization or automation. The tools exist to fix it permanently, but without a structured path, it’s easier to keep patching than to solve.

Who this is for

Mid-level IT Infrastructure Specialist in a regulated financial institution, responsible for recurring system reporting, managing dependencies across legacy and modern systems, and reducing manual toil in operational workflows.

Who this is not for

Senior architects designing greenfield systems, executives focused on strategy only, or teams without recurring operational reporting responsibilities.

What you walk away with

  • Identify the root cause of weekly report failure in under 90 minutes
  • Build a self-healing data pipeline using existing tools
  • Document and delegate report dependencies clearly
  • Reduce weekly report prep time from 5+ hours to under 45 minutes
  • Produce a stakeholder-ready version without rework
