Business Intelligence/Analytics:

Openwire’s Business Intelligence & Analytics practice combines the best of both worlds – Strong Domain Expertise with Impeccable Technology credentials – to provide the “Right” solutions to our customers. Our Solution Accelerators, Process Frameworks and Domain specific analytical packs are completely focused on improving our customer’s bottomline and topline growth.

BI Consulting

Openwire offers a core consulting service area on Business Intelligence and Analytics. The 10 Point Assessment Framework is a time-tested assessment mechanism that analyzes an organization’s BI infrastructure from 10 different dimensions and provides practical suggestions for improvement. Our consulting expertise encompasses areas around Enterprise BI roadmap and Strategy, Data Quality Assessment, Consolidation, Upgrade & Migration and Analytics articulation. The consulting framework is supplemented with tools such as Financial Assessments for Business Intelligence & Analytics (FABIA) and Structured Assessments for Business intelligence EnviRonments (SABER) for benchmarking an organization's BI environment with peers in its industry.

Datawarehouse Development

Openwire has engaged in more than 20 end-to-end datawarehousing projects across industries of varying sizes and complexity. We understand the risks associated with enterprise datawarehouse deployment and have distilled these thoughts into frameworks and tools that help our customers in ensuring a successful implementation. One example is the data model accelerator tool called ‘DaCel’, which helps reduce the modeling time by 40%. The numerous checklists, best practices, automation scripts, and code mining tools are deployed rigorously on projects. This in combination with our experienced BI practitioners provides the unique “Openwire Advantage”.

Maintenance and Support

One of our key areas of focus is to develop BI Centers of Excellence and competency units for customers. These centers are established with a view to “run” the business in the most efficient way and at the same time help “grow and transform” the business. Openwire’s proprietary framework based on the Agile paradigm, helps manage concurrent development and support and provides a way to calibrate the growth of enterprise datawarehouses. Openwire has managed the BI infrastructure for many large corporations. This includes 24*7 infrastructure support at all levels.

Data Management

Data Management gives the much needed importance to data in enterprises. The focus is on the Data Life-Cycle right from its origination at OLTP systems to its end point in the analytical value chain. Openwire’s expertise in this area includes Data Governance, Profiling and Certification of data, Data Quality, Master Data Management, Metadata and Reference data handling. We have also perfected the creation of an “Integrated Data Factory” model that combines the best of both worlds – Analytical expertise from Business Intelligence group and BPO expertise from Openwire’s subsidiary company called Caliber Point. This innovation is considered a game-changer in the analytical domain and helps our customers achieve economies of scale and scope

Migrations and Upgrades

Our BI Upgrade Framework has helped many customers migrate and/or upgrade their BI environment with minimal impact to business. This framework is augmented by accelerator tools for metadata-based analysis of the reporting and data integration environment, which ensure comprehensive impact assessment at the start of the project. We have created catalogs of anticipated problems for various upgrades and have also automated the Quality Assurance process applied once the migrations/upgrades are completed.

Analytics Deployment

We have proven expertise in implementing analytical solutions both in a “build-from-scratch” mode and in packaged analytics. Many analytical packs have been created, viz. Human Resources, Supply Chain, Insurance, Credit Cards, MRO, to name a few that helps in implementing such solutions in the shortest possible time. Augmenting this capability is our experience in packaged analytics like Peoplesoft EPM, Oracle Packaged Analytics, SAP – BI, SAS Business solutions etc. which ensures that our customers get the best possible answers to their problems.
