Business Intelligence

It’s not just about new reporting tools

The value of an analyst using business intelligence tools is to analyze trends and variances, then provide alternatives to improve business performance. It is a function within organizations that could provide great value to the direction (PROFITS!) of a company. At the same time, it is also one of the most under-utilized areas of business.

                                                                 

Installing a BI solution just to improving reporting is the wrong mindset. Bain and Company reported in a recent infographic how companies are 5 times more likely to make faster decisions than competitors by using analytics. From the top down, organizations must switch their thinking from reporting to analysis. Only then, teams can transform themselves from data gatherers to value added analytical business partners.

Quantum’s advantage is looking at analytics from the business point-of-view. We partner to understand your business needs and analysis requirements. Only then can the right technology and tools be applied to support the enterprise and decision making.
