In 2005 CCI joined the ranks of the new SAS Alliance Partner program. Drawn to SAS for its complete offering spanning Data Integration, Business Intelligence, and Predictive Analytics, CCI saw a valuable opportunity to take our customers to places we could never go before. Now, we can enable our customers to build sophisticated predictive and analytical models which will help them make better decisions in industries like Pharmaceuticals, Insurance, E-Commerce, and BioTech. In addition, we can now offer the ability to design and build complete Enterprise Data Integration solutions, including data migration, federation, cleansing, and validation.

Since 2005 CCI has been a Microsoft Certified Partner. We have been recognized by Microsoft for our “technological excellence and impact on customers through Microsoft products and services”. Our business intelligence consulting engagements routinely hinge on technologies like SQL Server, SSIS, and Analysis Server. As one of the most widely used relational database engines, SQL Server serves as the foundation for many of the DataMarts we design. In addition, both Cognos and SAS offer integration into the Microsoft Office suite of tools, extending their reach still further into the hands of business users.

In 2005 CCI joined forces with Cedar Open Accounts (COA), through its Strata division. The attraction was based on their analytical Workforce Performance application, HR Analyzer. This full blown application features a predefined data model as well as the metadata layer supporting IBM Cognos 8 including Framework Manager models and packages, cubes, etc. The application is robust, comprehensive and custom designed to support the unique information needs of any HR organization. The old adage that “our people are our greatest asset” is true. HR Analyzer helps ensure our customers are retaining their most valuable people, and growing their most promising people. In addition, it allows the ability to track their careers, reviews, training, sick time, etc, etc. HR is finally being seen as a strategic department of major corporations. HR Analyzer helps to raise it’s level of performance all through a Cognos front end. CCI can implement HR Analyzer as is, or fully customize it to fit your organization’s unique needs.

There are countless ways to share information effectively. CCI found one in 2005. In fact we were so impressed we became a partner! If you’d like to sign up, contact us for details.
