OREANDA-NEWS. July 04, 2012. NTT DATA Corporation has today started offering the “BI Apps” service, which can be implemented quickly at companies and deliver immediate results through the use of Business Intelligence (BI) that utilizes data stored at companies for “management decision-making processes.”

“BI Apps” features a management dashboard and analytical reporting application that has already been customized for each type of business and industry to better illustrate specific utilization scenarios immediately after implementing BI. The application helps resolve common problems where “results were not immediately noticeable after implementation as no specific BI utilization vision was available.” Data warehousing (DWH) that forms the key to analysis has been pre-optimized for each industry, allowing BI to be implemented much quicker than what was possible previously.

This service is based on BI implementation knowhow of a comprehensive personnel organization comprising of more than 1,000 experts spanning the NTT DATA Group around the world. Basing the service on this organization helps to resolve business issues related to the “visualization of management information” and “visualization of global supply and demand balance” through the use of BI Apps, from the initial consulting stage before implementation, through to helping business gain a secure foothold.

The first BI Apps service being offered covers the supply chain management (SCM) field for the global manufacturing industry.
