Solid
Technology, Experienced People
and Proven Solutions
agileDSS associates are your
assurance of quality and integrity. Our consulting
division backs up solid technology and is supported by deep
experience.
agileDSS offers strategic
consulting expertise in the area of Business Intelligence
in general (architecture, project definition, project management,
estimation, coaching, health checks, audits) and on specific
technologies to deploy any BI solutions, namely BusinessObjects.
Note that a large portion of our services
are not technology-specific. The real difference with agileDSS
is we strongly believe that while technology is an important
part of the equation, the critical
sucess factors of Business Intelligence projets have nothing
to do with technology. It is all about people.
agileDSS understands this and takes time to make sure all
stakeholders understand each step that is taken.
Strong people, experience, structure:

Our strength is definitely in our team: each member
represents the judgement and experience you will find in our

Description |
| Requirements
definition |
One key success factor for any project is confirmation
of user requirements. Business Intelligence requirements
are gathered differently than for traditional systems.
Let us guide you to do it right the first time.
|
| Solutions |
There are many technologies out there. We are able
to guide the selection of tools to match business
requirements, helping you define the selection criteria.
BI entails two components: the data and the BI application
layer. To maximize value, both are needed.
While we can help you with any BI technology, we have
marked expertise in the following:
BusinessObjects
Business Objects (BO) Xi Platform
BO Data Integrator
Crystal Xcelsius
BusinessObjects EIM & EPM
Microsoft
Microsoft SQL Server 2005
Oracle
Oracle Business Intelligence Suite
Oracle
Siebel Analytics

| Prototyping |
Solutions are often best tested out with users before
the complete solution is built. Prototyping enables
both us and our clients identify the right design
as well as look and feel, not to mention validating
some technical directions.
|
| Solution
design and build |
We propose the iterative approach. Our projects feature
many iterations that progressively become the final
solution. This way, we find or dismiss certain solutions
fast, get to data issues quickly and requirements
are based on real-life experience, not concepts.
|
| Service
Pricing Strategy |
In this era of mature BI environments, organizations
struggle with creating a charge-back model that makes
sense and is fair. Using best practices and our deep
experience with BI usage behavior, we can work with
you to put in place a simple, justifiable and trackable
BI-as-a-service costing model for your internal clients.
|
| Training |
agileDSS can deliver many courses both for technology
and general BI & data warehousing techniques. Ask
us about our selection of courses available.
|
| Scoping
and Estimating |
One of the most difficult part of projects is estimating
accurately. This must be based on a well-defined scope
and clear estimating guidelines based a real-life
project methodology. Even if we don't help you deliver
or manage the project, we can be a valuable sound
board and give you the peace of mind that you are
heading in the right direction.
|
| Project
management |
From experience, we know that success is 80% planning
it right and 20% seeing the plan to completion. To
estimate and plan right, agileDSS understands the
need for the project manager to have extensive experience
with BI projects: generalists can not do this. We
have the references to prove it.
