Performance Management / Business Intelligence

Reporting and Analytics is where it all began. Back in the early 1990’s CCI was evangelizing the use of a new class of software called Business Intelligence tools. This exciting new technology was being shaped and driven by several emerging product companies, led by IBM Cognos. For the first time, forward thinking companies began to understand the enormous value in being able to allow their business users to report off the data their operational systems had been collecting for decades.

As one of Cognos’ earliest consulting partners, CCI helped lead the way towards creating Best Practices in the design and development of some of the first custom BI solutions designed to support non-technical users.

CCI now has over 400 companies for whom we’ve designed developed or deployed BI solutions. Our expertise has stretched in an unbroken chain from the early days of Cognos’ PowerPlay and Impromptu to IBM Cognos 8, and now using the SAS Enterprise BI platform as well.

Today’s technologies are far advanced from the early days. Now CCI can create fully web-based BI solutions which include dashboards, scorecards, complex reports, multi-dimensional cubes, event alerts, and tie them directly into predictive and statistical analytics.

Regardless of your situation, it is likely that at some point CCI’s expertise could be exactly what you need to design, develop, extend, enhance or maintain your BI environment. We can provide you with developers, architects, project managers, database specialists or simply report authors depending on where you need that extra bit of BI muscle.

Today, a BI solution is seen as a journey, not a destination. To derive the greatest value from it, the system must continue to evolve as the business changes, and grows.
