Reporting Tools Optimization for Nationwide Insurance Organization

Business Situation

• The client is a large marketing and branding organization for a nationwide insurance provider
• The client wanted to develop and deploy a Business Objects application in an extranet fashion

Key Issues

• Internal business users and external plan users needed a way to easily generate standard and ad-hoc reports with a robust reporting tool designed for non-technical users
• The Business Objects universe needed to support ad-hoc and standard report writing for non-technical users
• The client also needed a set of pre-defined reports developed

Outcomes

• Provided the users with access to the financial and enrollment data mart using Business Objects as the primary reporting and analysis tool
• Internal client users and the independent client plan users now have access to the financial and enrollment data collected nationally
• Business Objects' WebIntelligence product was implemented for viewing published reports and to provide the cost-effective capability to easily generate ad-hoc queries
