BOARD Management Intelligence Toolkit (M.I.T.)
BOARD M.I.T. takes Business Intelligence into a new era.
Beyond historical data analysis, BOARD M.I.T. provides a number of simple objects that can be combined to build business simulations.
Thanks to BOARD M.I.T., companies of all sizes have drastically reduced managerial processes such as planning and budgeting from weeks to a click!
Businesses have long acknowledged the need to supply decision-makers, at all levels and in all departments, with the tools to access and analyze data.
The BOARD Management Intelligence Toolkit supplies decision-makers with the tools to access and analyize data because it enhances standard data analysis with the capacity to model information and rapidly develop applications, consistent with organizational structures and decision-making processes. This is made possible by a programming-free application generator and an integrated and powerful multi-dimensional database.
The combination of EIS (Executive Information Systems), DSS (Decision Support Systems) and OLAP in a single environment makes Board a company-wide tool. It gives clear savings in organizational efficiency through its simplicity of use, low end-user training requirements and low application maintenance costs.
BOARD M.I.T. is a powerful and flexible product and introduces the concept of the Management Intelligence Toolkit, i.e. an environment featuring synchronized objects and native functions for the rapid creation of analysis, simulation and reporting systems.
Accessing, sharing and structuring existing information are only part of the problem.
BOARD M.I.T. can be used to create models to represent, simulate and manage company processes, without ever having to use a programming language.
In the "Visual Modeling" environment of Board MIT, all it takes is a mouse to select library objects, to arrange them on the screen and to assign them properties. Without ever having to write a single program line, you can rapidly develop high quality applications for guided navigation (EIS) or analysis and simulation.
BOARD M.I.T. offers a multi-dimensional environment. Its data modeling tools are capable of processing a large numbers of elements, information sources and relation types, simply and intuitively.
The wide range of applications possible with BOARD M.I.T. will cover all aspects of business management - from sales to marketing, finance, advertising, purchasing and management control.
In each of these applications, BOARD M.I.T. offers the user access to information, presented in a summarized or detailed format. The required information may be the result of the processing of data gathered from multiple sources.
The BOARD M.I.T. data reader module ensures the highest flexibility for the integration of heterogeneous data sources.
