A well designed business intelligence solution gives you a 360 view of your business

How do you get that? Generally, a successful business intelligence solution will consist of many integrated platforms and services, but a few key ones are a strong ELT data platform, a fit for purpose and a well-defined Data Warehouse hosted on a platform such as Azure Synapse Analytics or Microsoft Fabric, and a powerful, interactive business modelling and reporting platform such as Power BI.

Helping You Achieve Data-Driven Decisions

PTR has been designing, developing and implementing business intelligence solutions since the eighties. Business Intelligence means different things to different people. Still, in its simplest definition, Business Intelligence is about using the wealth of stored data to build insightful reports and dashboards presenting your key business performance metrics and facilitating informed, data-driven decisions to drive your business forward. Your data is one of your most valuable business assets.

Businesses today have high volumes of data distributed over on-premise and cloud-based locations, some structured and some unstructured, and hosted on a variety of architectures. Integrating huge amounts of data and delivering a trustworthy one-truth source for reporting can be extremely challenging.

With 30+ years of experience working with data, we have met most data challenges at some point. Our BI consultants are well placed to use their expertise to help with planning and implementing business intelligence solutions and guiding you through your data journey. Our expert consultants can help you build a Data Strategy and we can assist with designing and planning a BI roadmap, with manageable milestones to help you attain your goal of achieving a trustworthy 360-degree view of your customers, your products, your members, your business, uncovering the stories of your data.

The Business Intelligence Roadmap

We have already alluded to the Business Intelligence journey being different things to different organisations, so defining a single roadmap is an impossible task. However, there are distinct stages that we can identify regardless of the number of data sources, location of data sources, and reporting tools of choice.

Our BI consultants will work with you to create the right solution and journey for you undertaking tasks such as:

• Review of Data Estate & Data Strategy Development

• Stakeholder and Business Partner Engagement & Needs Analysis

• Data extraction

• Data storage

• Data Cleansing & Preparation

• Data Shaping & Data Modelling

• Report and Dashboard Design & Development

• Report and Dashboard Publication
