The Configured Solutions division within Bytes Technology Group Systems Integration (BTG - SI) is pleased to announce that it will participate in this year`s BusinessObjects Extreme Insight Tour, supporting the local launch of BusinessObjects XI.
BTG SI - Configured Solutions is one of the country`s largest implementers and suppliers of the BusinessObjects suite of business intelligence (BI) tools, providing the full length and breadth of services associated with the roll-out of BI solutions.
Says Kurt Oellermann, Divisional Managing Director of BTG SI - Configured Solutions: "We are very proud to be aligned to BusinessObjects and they have been an important partner to us since 1995. The impending launch of BusinessObjects XI in SA is also a milestone we are looking forward to, as we seek to highlight to customers the ongoing development of the product and how BusinessObjects with each release further embraces customer demands."
The need for BI tools is on an increase as companies the world over are realising the value currently locked in their data, which with the effective deployment of BI tools such as BusinessObjects can assist them in transforming the way they do business.
Oellermann says the launch, which is to be held on 14 April at the Castle in Kyalami, will give customers and partners a synopsis of how BI tools can work for them, trends and upcoming developments in the BI industry, as well as an overview of the company`s latest addition to its product line-up with its latest version XI.
BTG SI - Configured Solutions will present at the event and will cover the topic `Business Intelligence Arsenal - Weapons in the fight for information`.
The launch forms part of BusinessObject`s Extreme Insight tour which started in Paris in February and has been taken all over the world, covering all major cities in which the company has a presence.
"Events like the Extreme Insight tour are important to us as they give us the ability to showcase not only technology, but interesting developments and trends in the BI space. At Configured Solutions we have learnt from our customers that they need so much more than the raw technology - they want us to assist in defining business needs, developing the solution, implementing the associated technology, and then take it one step further with ongoing support and the application of international best practices.
"It is with this that we have based our own business model on the overall fulfilment of BI as a business tool, critical to the customer`s needs. BusinessObjects XI is set to revolutionise the way in which we use BI software, and set new standards the world over," ends Oellermann.
