More on Business Intelligence
Market leading Cognos 8BI software enables organisations to significantly improve Performance Management aspects by improving their understanding of what is happening across the business via:-
- Maximising existing data investments
Business Intelligence takes the volume of data your organisation collects and stores transforming it into a cohesive, consistent suite of meaningful reports and analyses that everyone can easily access and use.
- A complete, integrated line of sight
With secure, readily available reports and analyses, everyone sees permitted results across divisions, departments and groups of workers alike to pre-defined business rules. This enables comparative analyses and drill down capabilities to discover underlying causes and understand "What", "When" & "Why" issues behind business performance criteria.
- Aligning everyone with one, consistent version of the truth
With common data definitions stored to pre-defined business rules and an understanding of priorities, users of such processes are dealing with factual information, spending less time debating the data, values, structures etc., and more time making informed decisions based upon trusted data.
- Shortening times to make informed decisions
With timely reports and self-service reporting on key business drivers and metrics. All users see changes as and when they happen enabling the right decisions to be made at the right time, thereby increasing the values of the decisions made.
- Meeting the information needs of all users
Flexible, intuitive and user-friendly reporting means everyone can have the right information delivered in the right way: whether managed reports, dashboards, scorecards, online analytics, or self-service reporting and queries - all of the information is provided via personalised, secured menus ensuring high levels of acceptance and ease of use.
