IFS, a provider of enterprise application services, has launched the first phase of its new Business Intelligence (BI) concept.
The new BI concept includes new functionality, extended integration options and dedicated BI expert teams in Scandinavia and North America.
The offering for BI is based on a flexible ‘BI by Choice, BI Built in’ concept, whereby customers can integrate the BI platform of their choice with IFS applications or choose Microsoft BI offering as built-in functionality.
Through the ‘BI built in’ concept, IFS promotes BI as an integrated part of the day-to-day business processes. The built-in BI components are conceived of as natural parts of the overall system.
In addition, the built-in aspect includes an extended and integration with Microsoft BI Offering.
The company said the ‘BI by choice’ aspect of the new offering caters to organisations with a clear BI tool preference.
The above feature allows information to be viewed within IFS Applications and that the system can offer integration with other BI offerings.
IFS research and development Thomas Sald said the company continues to invest in their BI offering and its BI strategy represents a company-wide commitment – from R&D’s long-term product planning to the BI Groups’ customer-focused consulting.
