Accredited as SAP Business Objects Silver Partner

According to a recent Gartner survey: for the third year running business intelligence is the #1 priority of today’s CIOs.

G3 Global is proud to announce we are now an accredited Business Objects Partner. Business Objects includes Business Intelligence Software with components that provide performance management, planning, reporting, query and analysis, and enterprise information management.

Companies that outperform in challenging economic climates do so by setting strategic priorities, driving investments at the core of their business, and funding projects that generate a quick return on investment. Without tools to measure the success or failure of strategic priorities, decision makers are left unable to make the right decisions at the right time. Market leaders know that in times of crisis nothing is more important than ensuring the operating flexibility necessary for innovative, market-driven decisions. This may be a requirement to manage cash, run more lean operations through reduced operating costs, get closer to customers in order to grow revenue, or the retention of top talent. Whatever the approach, information is key.

A recent survey by BusinessWeek found that a majority of the business users today are still going on “gut feel,” and not utilizing the data from these systems to make effective business decisions. 61% of decisions were made based on gut feel more than 50% of the time. 77% were aware of bad decisions that managers have made due to insufficient information. With Business Objects, we aim to digest and present the massive amount of data that organizations have and present it as information in a format that is usable for quick decision making.

Business Objects software reads data from numerous databases, ERP systems, flat files and even excel, and presents it as usable up to date information. Business Objects reports can be created quickly and will provide the right information to people in your organization at level:

• For Front Line Employees: Detailed Pixel perfect highly formatted reports
• For Operations Management: Custom analytics and flexible slice and dice reporting
• For Executive Management: What: Scorecards, trends, exceptions with highly interactive graphical data visualisation

G3 Global’s core focus is the Media sector with capabilities and experience in Music, Publishing, PR, Advertising, Newspapers and Magazines, etc. Although many business issues are common across industries, there are a number that are very specific to the Media Industry. Our team have spent many years focussing on this niche industry and are placed in a strong position to help Media companies become more profitable through efficient use of Business Systems.
