End-to-end Data Analysis project for Go Bus Egypt, from data engineering in Excel to visual storytelling in Power BI
🚌 Go Bus | End-to-End Data Analysis Project
Welcome to the Go Bus Data Analysis repository. This project demonstrates a complete data workflow—from generating synthetic business data to building a strategic decision-making dashboard.
🌟 Project Context
This project simulates a real-world request from Go Bus Egypt. The challenge was to create a data-driven system to monitor fleet performance, revenue trends, and passenger behavior to optimize operational efficiency.
🛠️ Phases of Development
1. Data Engineering (Microsoft Excel)
Since real-world data is often confidential, I architected a synthetic dataset from scratch that mirrors Go Bus's operations:
Dimensions: Routes (e.g., Cairo-Gouna, Alexandria-Dahab), Bus Classes (Elite, Business, Classic), and Timeframes.
Logics: Integrated realistic occupancy rates, seasonal price fluctuations, and booking patterns.
Tooling: Used Excel formulas and Power Query for initial data structuring.
2. Data Transformation (Power Query)
Cleaned and reshaped the data to ensure consistency.
Handled date/time formatting to allow for "Peak Hour" analysis.
Created a Star Schema for efficient data modeling in Power BI.
3. Visual Storytelling (Power BI & DAX)
Developed an interactive dashboard focused on Actionable Insights:
Key KPIs: Total Revenue, Average Ticket Price, and Total Trips.
Occupancy Analysis: Visualizing which bus classes are most profitable.
Route Performance: Identifying "Gold Mines" (High demand/High revenue routes).
Advanced DAX: Created measures for Month-over-Month (MoM) Growth and Capacity Utilization %.
🚀 How to Use This Repo
/Data: Explore the raw Excel files to see how the data was structured.
/Report: Download the .pbix file to interact with the dashboard (Requires Power BI Desktop).

💡 Key Takeaway
This project isn't just about "charts"; it's about showing how data can answer: "Where should we add more buses tomorrow?" or "Which route needs a price adjustment?"
