Assembly Simplifies Merch Operations with Pyne and Less

Streamlining Merch Operations and Centralising Data

Assembly, a leader in premium merchandise production, sought to simplify its operations by managing the complex processes involved in creating custom apparel for businesses. They needed a solution to centralize their complicated data sources, which stemmed from custom solutions specific to their business model. We unified these data sources and leveraged advanced reporting tools for better decision-making and operational efficiency.

6 Data Sources

3 Custom Reports

Providing insights on CLTV, CAC, and inventory

Enhanced Decision-Making

With data-driven reports central to executive meetings


The Challenge

Assembly’s business model, which integrates a powerful digital platform with a fully integrated supply chain for creating custom apparel, faced challenges managing data from various disjointed systems. Their data sources included:

With this complex landscape, the company struggled to gain unified visibility into key business metrics such as customer lifetime value (CLTV), customer acquisition cost (CAC), and inventory overview—critical to scaling a data-driven organization.


The Solution

We helped Assembly centralize its data sources, allowing for seamless integration and reporting across sales, marketing, and executive functions. By leveraging the built-in semantic layer of Steep, we built custom reports that gave Assembly leadership insights into:

These reports have become a critical part of key business meetings, transforming Assembly into a more data-driven organization. The integration of data through Less significantly streamlined operations and decision-making processes across departments.


Step 1 | Integration & Reporting Approach

Centralised Data Platform

Using Less, we consolidated data from multiple sources (MSSQL, HubSpot, Google Ads, and more) into a single platform, eliminating data silos and providing a unified view of the business.

Custom Reporting in Steep

Leveraging Steep’s powerful semantic layer, we built reports tailored to the needs of Assembly’s sales, marketing, and executive teams. These reports provide insights into customer behavior, marketing ROI, and inventory trends, driving actionable decision-making.


Step 2 | User Training and Adoption

To ensure a smooth transition, we conducted custom training on Steep, ensuring all business users understood the platform and the importance of the semantic layer as a single source of truth. This empowered the Assembly’s team to independently use the reports and further embedded a data-driven culture across the organisation.


The Outcome

By centralizing their data and providing tailored reporting, we helped Assembly achieve significant operational improvements:
