Journalism, headline for an article
Okay, this is the headline for an article dealing with how a mid-sized electronic-component distributor has implemented an SAP solution to analyze data gathered from the company's warehouse and logistics solutions, the aim being to improve their warehouse processing times.
The writer was being a little creative with "Daten unter Strom," both forging a link to the electronics industry and suggesting what the article is about (okay, it's a little oblique...).
I'm looking for an English headline that captures a similar electronics-industry connection, but which also has something to do with data, data analysis, logistics info or somesuch. Best I've managed myself is "Powering Logistics Data," but it ain't great.
Any suggestions out there?

Electrifying data flow
may be worth looking at, given that an "electrifying" performance can be "terrific"...

Live data
We are alerted in this area to "live wires", and some people think that's what they are?

Transforming/Accelerating Data Flow
Alludes to improving efficiency without suggesting more than the source term promises. I also thought of "keeping the juice flowing" or the "data mojo" running but there's a company with that name...
Note from asker:
| Thanks Michael, I appreciate your input here. I liked "keeping the juice flowing" but it was too colloquial for the article. |

Active Data Warehousing
Business intelligence (BI) is becoming an important part of more organizations' day-to-day operations, and active data warehousing is a prime enabling technology.
An active data warehouse presents an extension of the enterprise data warehousing capabilities. The foundation of an ADW architecture is the detailed transaction history. The analytical capabilities offered by this infrastructure are leveraged by responding to near-time business events as they occur, completing complex analyses upon demand, and alerting people or systems to take action. An active data warehouse is a closed loop system. Events are analyzed as they occur, and intelligent decisions are promptly initiated. Closed loop systems allow an organization to automatically respond to opportunities with agility, often without the need for human intervention.[2]
