Business Intelligence

Visible and accurate business information is crucial for all organisations. Most businesses are faced with an abundance of data but surprisingly few have the information they need for timely and accurate decision making - or worse: they are misled by inaccurate or poorly presented data.

Business Intelligence (BI) can help an organisation effectively measure its business strategy through well defined Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), integrated data and accurate information. Waterstons’ experienced consultants combine their BI expertise with relevant technologies to increase you organisations’ ability to:

• Drive business improvement
  Providing you with the ability to make fast decisions and focus on areas requiring immediate attention.
• Provide information that reinforces the business strategy
  Allowing your organisation to measure itself against the defined goals and objectives, ensuring KPIs are useful and relevant.
• Provide consistent reporting and information sharing
  A single version of the truth that is easily accessible by everybody and reporting tools that are selected based on the requirements of the users and the information.
• Standardise data
  Multiple disparate systems result in fragmented information that is often stored in different formats. BI can help standardise and rationalise this data.
• Improve data quality
  If you can see the information clearly you can identify anomalies with the data quickly and action initiatives to clean the data.

Waterstons BI consultants have extensive experience defining intelligence solutions that meet the requirements of the business and focus on providing useful and timely information. We utilise best practice data modelling and data warehouse design coupled with in-depth technical expertise ensuring the right technology is used effectively.
