ToolKit

An innovative approach to BI and CPM

Thanks to its innovative toolkit approach, BOARD makes it possible to create customised Business Intelligence and Corporate Performance Management software solutions without the need for any programming. From simple reports to the most sophisticated performance management applications, any analysis can be easily built using the drag and drop function and the configuration of objects that are automatically synchronised with the data. End-users have access to a full “self-service” information environment, which enables them to obtain immediate answers to their questions from a verified, consistent, shared information source.

Application administrators can efficiently build and maintain applications, with a “Time to Solution” and “Total Cost of Ownership” unachievable by traditional BI and CPM solutions.

The Toolkit

At its core, the BOARD toolkit is a seamless blend of tools in one environment providing tremendous efficiencies during the design, development and deployment of BI and CPM solutions.

These tools—a highly scalable multidimensional database, data reading and transformation tools (ETL), application user interface environment (client and web), security and a multi-tier architecture for system delivery—are the pieces one might expect when building an analysis application. The BOARD toolkit was designed to use all these tools together within the same development framework to provide an unparalleled combination of speed, flexibility and affordability. This integrated all-in-one approach eliminates the need for high levels of technical expertise and substantially reduces the complexity and costs associated with building, customizing and maintaining a data analysis environment.
