Business Intelligence Consulting Services
Aasonn believes that Business Intelligence (BI) Systems (also known as Decision Support Systems) are key business drivers in today's competitive market. A company may have the best data warehouse in the world and the most well thought out data warehouse architecture, but without the proper BI systems, the data is not being leveraged in a way that provides competitive advantage.
Aasonn provides BI Consulting Services that address and support our contention that a BI system must provide competitive advantage:

A Critical Success Factor - The Right Partner
Every Business Intelligence project that Aasonn begins starts with a thorough review of the Aasonn Business Intelligence project methodology with the Business Sponsors and Stakeholders for the initiative. Our BI Services can take you from start to finish with your Business Intelligence initiative giving you a quick return on your investment and garnering additional corporate support.
Aasonn utilizes the Ralph Kimball project methodology and can start your project off to a solid beginning with our Readiness Assessment. The readiness assessment determines the prerequisites for the project and establishes the milestones and subsequent phases necessary for a successful BI initiative.
Once the Assessment is completed we start the project in earnest and utilize senior data warehouse and business intelligence developers and project managers who have years of experience in developing state of the art data warehouses and BI applications. These professionals make all the difference to the success of a project. Many larger firms utilize the "Overwhelm Methodology" which means that they bring in literally dozens of junior members of their firm to learn on the project at your cost guided by a few overwhelmed, senior project managers and technical experts. While eventually this approach will succeed it is usually more costly and requires much rework to solve the problems caused by the less experienced junior members.
Our approach requires that our customer's employees are equal partners in every project we engage in. Our project methodology utilizes an iterative process and is targeted at achieving measurable results in the shortest time frame; usually 30, 60 or 90 days.
We ensure the success of your project by managing the scope of the project and constantly rechecking the business objectives with the direction and progress of the project. The success of the project comes down to competent and professional scope management. If a project veers off course, the outcome and the dates begin to slip thus jeopardizing the success of the project and losing support within our customer's management and executive sponsorship group.
