Your Data
Accurate, quality data is key to a successful Business Intelligence system.
There are many factors that indicate a requirement to implement a single repository
of trusted data in a Data Warehouse:
-
Data quality issues in source systems may require attention.
- The performance
of the transactional system is of primary importance.
- Data needs to be transformed to enable usable analysis across business
functions.
Our Data Warehouse specialists assess our client’s data architecture
and provide a gap analysis on the ability of that data to support the Business
Intelligence requirements of the business. We advise our clients of the different
options with regard to ETL tools that are available to support the Data Warehouse
project. Our Data Warehouse methodology is consistent with the recognised
Kimball method, which reflects international best practice.
Dashboard - Key Performance Indicators
Dashboarding of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) is an ultimate goal of any
Business Intelligence project. This offers executives and key stakeholders
immediate visibility of summary key information that is required to be successful
in achieving the business goals. Some important elements that may be displayed
in a dashboard for a chief executive:
-
Indicators of achievement of specific business goals (e.g. Operations,
Profit, Revenue).
- Scorecards of how the entire business is performing against target in
the different areas (e.g. financial, operations, HR, customers).
- Alerts to key information for exception management (trends and threshold
based alerts).
Business Intelligence Technology
System Dynamics partnerships with SAP Business Objects, Oracle, Microsoft
and IBM are key in our delivery of Business Intelligence solutions in Ireland.

of data sources.
