About Insight Business Solutions
BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE SERVICES
BI For FinanceBusiness Intelligence solutions enable Finance to collect accurate data from multiple sources and perform the analyses required to answer questions about corporate financial performance.
Business Intelligence tools and solutions of greatest important to Finance:
BI for Purchasing
BI for HR
BI solutions improve the effectiveness of purchasing functions through improving the quality of management information that is available through integrating the raw data output from separate systems into a single data warehouse with rules and processes established to improve the quality of the underlying data. In this way, BI solutions can support the insight generation required to deliver cost savings that have a direct impact on the profit and loss account.
Planning, budgeting and forecasting - contribution,
aggregation, manipulation, and approval of the
financial plan on a periodic or continual basis.
Financial consolidations and reporting - legal and
statutory consolidation systems, along with more
generalised financial statement generation capabilities.
Financial analytics and dashboards - profitability
applications, role-specific dashboards, metrics, and
specific financial analytics for detailed financial
processes.
Financial governance, risk management,
and compliance - governance and
control requirements that include
national and international regulations,
such as Sarbanes-Oxley or the International
Financial Reporting Standards.
Scorecards and strategy - methodology-based
scorecards, such as the Balanced Scorecard, and
strategy management applications.
BI solutions will be central to any human capital management
systems strategy that is developed. Such a strategy should have
the objective of enabling the company to measure, simulate,
analyse and identify the impact of human capital actions on the
company’s value creation process. This will again require the
integration of multiple data sources into a single warehouse
enabling the desired reporting and analysis to be completed
quickly and accurately.
Industry-specific experience, with a thorough
understanding of the banking and insurance sector’s
intricacies
Business knowledge that is specific to risk management
and related regulations

Insight Business Solutions provides support for companies
across the entire risk control initiative, from situation audit

BI for Production & Supply Chain
BI for RISK
Supply chain management is the management of a network
of supply chain partners and the related information flow.
It covers the whole logistics flow from suppliers to custom-
ers and distributors, and involves multiple management
processes from sales forecasts through production
planning and production management to order and
delivery management.
Insight Business Solutions can support Supply Chain
Managers in both project definition and implementation,
the latter involving the integration of BI solutions that
provide the information to enable the optimisation of
supply chain management, including analytic reporting and
corporate performance management.
Risk management is becoming increasingly important in all
businesses. This is most notably the case with banks and
insurance companies where regulatory frameworks (Basel
II and Solvency II) have been introduced to ensure risks are
managed appropriately. However, the field is gradually
extending to include all other business sectors, not least
because the credit crunch and subsequent recession
have highlighted the impact that failing to manage
risk effectively has on corporate performance.
Even if there is no formal regulatory require-
ment, external stakeholders such as debt
providers and shareholders increas-
ingly expect risks to be pro-actively
identified and mitigated
Insight Business Solutions has established a
practice and dedicated offerings for the manage-
ment of Governance, Risks and Compliance. Insight
Business Solutions risk experts have the required skills
and experience to design and implement solutions that can
provide risk managers with an integrated view over a large
range of risks.
Since 1997, our risk consulting teams have developed solid
experience in the integration of risk management systems
within financial institutions.
THE RISK PRACTICE OFFERS THE FOLLOWING:

the solutions offered by the different partner software
vendors. Insight Business Solutions partnerships with the
key risk management software vendors ensure that it has
access to the most recent market information regarding
tools and methodology, as well as a proven
implementation capability.
KEY RISKS THAT THE RISK PRACTICE IS
INVOLVED IN HELPING CLIENTS MANAGE
INCLUDE:
Credit risk
Market risk
Liquidity risk
Operational risk
Economic capital
Regulatory capital (Basel II and Solvency II)
Anti-fraud and anti-money laundering
Environmental risks (carbon accounting –
determination, reduction initiatives and greenhouse gas
emissions tracking)
Laws on new economic regulations
Health, safety and environment
Information systems are central to any risk management
initiative, whether it involves regulatory compliance or just
good business practice. BI solutions enable risk planning,
risk outcome analysis and risk control as well as the
reporting necessary to prove regulatory compliance.
In the medium term, cost reduction opportunities can be
delivered through application rationalisation. Areas to be
investigated are licenses for redundant tools, paying for
all software features when only a minority is actually
used, maintaining multiple products repositories when
a master repository and unmanaged copies are
enough and grouping the core management rules
shared by everyone in a unique BI system
The energy efficiency of IT production can
also be increased, for example by
migrating all storage to a green
data centre, reviewing whether it
would be more advantageous for the
company to subscribe to an application
instead of owning it and only pay for actual
utilisation and developing internal skills or
services centres to ensure efficient and effective
service supply
Senior management reporting is usually seen as a consoli-
dation of business and local decision support systems.
However, an alternative means of reporting can be
achieved if a unique corporate system is established, and
then made available to local systems. In this case, for
strategic reporting, the adaptation effort then takes place
in the local systems and not the corporate system.
Insight Business Solutions has experience of both develop-
ing the necessary frameworks and delivering the necessary
solutions in the form of Master Data Management (MDM)
or Business Rules Management Systems (BRMS) projects.
Implementation of such systems ensures regular, fair and
compliant reporting to senior management.
Insight Business Solutions also has experience in assessing
the contribution of IT activities to the company’s value
creation process.
IT functions face a number of challenges – correlating IT
provision with service quality, maintaining proprietary
systems, reducing costs (particularly energy consumption)
and managing data in an environment of evolving regula-
tion.
HOW BI CAN HELP IT MANAGERS OVERCOME THEIR
CHALLENGES ?
Correlating IT costs with service quality requires tracking
SLAs through regular measurements stored in a database,
determining costs analysis based on quality criteria and
generating appropriate reporting.
Equally when it comes to reducing costs without hindering
service delivery development, there are several possible
solutions, all of which require high quality management
information.
Undertake a brief audit to identify wasted applications,
i.e. those applications that are forgotten and are rarely, if
at all, used. Experience has shown that wastage results
from restructurings, the natural evolution of business
processes, and the approach to development favoured by
IT
