Analytics: the sedApta Suite component for Business Intelligence
Analytics is the O.S.A. suite component that supports all processes involving Business Intelligence activities, such as: Change Management, Monitoring, Production, Quality Control, Logistics, etc.
Through the Analytics Reporting Framework, the suite’s web reporting tool, Analytics generates reports to support decision-making activities for the strategic management of business processes.
Analytics calculates important KPIs to monitor the Supply Chain. The KPIs can be selected from catalogues, specific for company needs and complying with the ISO 22400 standard, or can be entered manually by users.
Analytics supports users in the configuration of analysis dashboards, through the definition of access rules and display options. At the end of each process instance, through Analytics it is possible to create new reports simply by selecting and applying data filters. The analyses can be saved to guarantee comparative monitoring of processes over time along the entire decision-making chain.
One of the main benefits offered by the sedApta tool is the continuous improvement of business processes, thanks to the integration of Analytics with the main software applications in use along the supply chain.
