ABSOFT SAP BUSINESSOBJECTS DISCOVERY

'Discovery' is the Absoft Business Analytics and Technology teams way of understanding what SAP BusinessObjects has to offer organisations for better all-round performance management.

In an organisation, performance management provides a framework for optimising management systems and processes, enabling managers to answer key strategic business questions. Equally importantly, it enables them to make decisions and measure the results of the actions.

There is no shortage of process improvement opportunities for businesses. Enhanced forecasting capability, reporting and analysis, integration of strategic, financial, sales and operational plans – the list goes on!

Most organisations have very talented business and IT professionals, capable of creating business value by driving process improvement and innovation. Given the respective wants and needs of these communities, together with the ever evolving technologies available to enable innovation, it can be a challenge to agree on how and where to make a start, and the best on-going plan of attack.

The Absoft Discovery Process

Discovery is about articulating what the business needs from its corporate data to achieve its strategic goals, matching that with the capabilities of the delivery tools that are on offer, and creating a roadmap that will deliver business value from implementing world class reporting and analytics.


Distilled from our previous client engagements, our Discovery process is carefully designed to quickly:

  • Build a clear picture of the business and IT wants and needs
  • Introduce options and best practices for meeting these
  • Decide how the challenges will be addressed through systems implementation and process change
  • Assess the benefits of doing so
  • Agree a prioritised plan of action, with the aim of delivering incremental benefits at regular, frequent intervals

This Discovery process is a framework approach. It can be applied with whatever level of depth is appropriate to get each client up and running.
