Commercial Analytic Applications

Packaged analytic applications are enterprise-class software solutions that enable your organization to implement common business analytic solutions in less time and with a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) than might otherwise be possible with a 100% custom build strategy.

These solutions embed knowledge of decision-making best practices and express specific metrics for a given set of business functions. Because they contain pre-defined mappings from leading Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) sources to their target data warehouse structures, packaged analytics can enrich an existing data warehouse solution or be used to quickly extend the value of ERP and other operational systems.

The leading BI and ERP software vendors such as IBM/Cognos, Lawson, Microsoft, Orace/Hyperion and SAP/Business Objects offer these solution frameworks. They enable our consultants to rapidly implement corporate performance management solutions while delivering a data extraction platform for building custom analytics for the business processes unique to your company or industry.

The packaged analytics applicable to all organizations include:

Financial Management Analytics – Highlight opportunities for profit, uncover areas to reduce expense, speed your time to close, and ensure your executives and auditors have confidence to certify the numbers.

Sales and Marketing Analytics – Gain insight into the most important aspect of your business. Optimize your marketing, sales, and customer service functions, and gain more wallet share.

Supply Chain Analytics – Better manage your operational activities by reducing procurement costs, driving efficiencies in your supply chain, and managing logistics to provide optimal service.

HR Analytics – Understand how your staffing strategy impacts productivity, evaluate workforce skills, and benchmark your organization against industry best practices.

By collaborating with The Revere Group's ERP teams, our CPM consultants tap into vast technical and functional expertise of applications and data models, effectively bringing a best-of-breed approach to your commercial data warehousing efforts. We do this while working with your own internal teams to design the right "buy and extend" approach that will achieve the optimal combination of out-of-the-box vs. custom analytics with the overall lowest total cost of ownership.
