Finance BI Casestudy - The Information Factory The Information Factory

A company’s global business intelligence (BI) systems only provided revenue information on a monthly basis. Some regional BI systems provided daily revenue data – but nothing was centralised. This made it difficult to monitor revenue performance and provide accurate forecasting to global management.

Requirement

Our client needed a solution that would provide, for the first time in their history, a truly global view on daily revenue performance.

Solution

  • Interface and load process linking country daily sales and billing data to a core data warehouse.
  • Aggregations and reporting layers for daily, month-to-date and year-to-date reporting.
  • The ability to monitor daily revenue performance means that management receive accurate sales forecasts and can react quickly to local issues as they arise.
  • Tailored reports for country, regional and global management.
  • Reporting for key clients.
  • Early warning fraud alert.
