Idea Integration’s Business Intelligence practice features a team of senior professionals who have seen and done it all. Combining technical, business and vertical expertise with our proven Idea Roadmap™ Methodology and knowledge management skills, we can build on successes at each stage of development. This ensures the delivery of BI services that provide meaningful value to your organization.
The most successful business intelligence initiatives are those that demonstrate tangible links to business goals and needed information. Idea BI has developed a proven methodology consisting of facilitated workshops, technical assessments, tool evaluations, and an incremental roadmap that helps chart a course for short-term and long-term business intelligence projects.
This process includes interviews and a thorough needs analysis to detail requirements and design specifications. Once documented, Idea BI is able to ensure the solution supports critical business objectives.
A thorough planning and scope effort assures a rapid return on investment from short-term deliverables. During this stage, Idea BI outlines the overall implementation strategy to ensure that all business needs are met in a timely fashion, and that the complete solution supports system growth.
Idea BI uses leading technologies, industry best practices, and proven methodologies to design technical architecture best fitting the specific environment. Building from this technical architecture, we create solutions that provide optimum performance, scalability, and expansion capability as business needs change.
Our consultants are experienced in all aspects of data modeling and can design and build logical, physical, and multidimensional data models based on effective data management strategy.
Idea BI consultants are highly experienced in the implementation of data warehouse architecture and related databases, forming the foundation of all data warehousing efforts.
Our robust data cleansing and conversion methodologies transfer timely and accurate data from any source, including proprietary and standard formats as well as commercially available data sets. Idea BI utilizes technical expertise and strong relationships with leading vendors to ensure a rapid and repeatable process, producing accurate and high quality data.
Idea BI can create a flexible report generation interface giving end-users the power to analyze integrated data sets and knowledge in ways they never imagined. Information that could previously be unattainable or required massive manual effort to visualize can be made readily available.
Our team provides certified and customized training on leading technologies through formalized classroom training both on- and off-site. In addition, Idea BI routinely conducts knowledge transfer sessions post-solution to ensure end-user success.
Idea BI database maintenance and administrative services promote data integrity, security, fault-tolerance, and performance optimization. We work to ensure the long-term evolution and expansion of data warehouses to support business objectives.
