Business Intelligence

For the past 16 years, Pentalog High Tech has provided assistance and project management services for the development and integration of decision making solutions for its clients.
A Business Intelligence project breaks downs into the following: 70% of the time corresponds to analysis and the remaining 30% is devoted to the development and implementation of the solution.
We can handle your project from start to finish, i.e. we can integrate an iteration of your existing decision-making process.

Advantages

  • Sharing information within the company: the information is no longer stored in spreadsheet files but becomes accessible to everyone.
  • Controlling data: the data is checked before being disseminated, grouped by functional sectors; each piece of data has a single functional meaning.
  • Improving productivity: report creators no longer have to search for or process information. All the data is included in a unique repository.
  • Highlighting reconciliation errors.

Our Expertise

  • Audit your information system to see if all prerequisites are available (data from an ERP, from a human resources management software, from accounting, etc.).
  • Grasp and assimilate your data at different levels:
  • functional
  • technical: in terms of software infrastructure and databases
  • organizational: setting up human structures of the decision-making process.

Data analysis for taking strategic decisions and improving productivity, fraud detection, time projections for anticipating the market are the main stakes that the company faces.

Thanks to its experience which covers several fields, Pentalog High Tech masters the IT decision-making techniques and tools and can help you set up, maintain or upgrade your data warehouse and your reporting.

  • Consulting studies
  • Data capture and processing: first step in the development process of a reporting solution.
  • Data warehouse structure
  • Information retrieval: creating static or dynamic reports.

The business intelligence teams of Pentalog High Tech master the recognized tools of the market, such as Business Objects or Cognos, but, depending on your company policy, they can offer open source alternatives like SpagoBI or Pentaho.

  • Structure of data warehouse: Conceptual representation of the dimensional model

Our Services

All our services can be performed offshore or in France. In order to define the needs as close to the users as possible, local services determine the smooth provision of mapping or offshore report development services.
However, for better efficiency and control of your project budget, we recommend the following organization:

Local services on the customer's premises:

  • Learning your profession and analyzing your data in your premises by one or several consultants.
  • User interviews to understand how they view and use their data.

Offshore services:

  • Creation of ETL mapping when the scope of data to be processed is completely defined and officially recorded.
  • First iteration with the standard processes and then with the more complex business processes of the company.
  • Report Development (provided that the hardware abstraction layer is completed).
