The Power and Benefits of Separating Data from Visuals
Data Depot: A concise integration of only the required data!
Data sources are not taxed
Integrated Business Rules
Custom (Reports / Dashboards)
Manual Processes are Automated
Leverage ALL the data
Give us the current status of the:
The Time to Know is Now
Washington, D.C.
Schedule of our tank movements
Costs of the jet fuel needed Cobra Financials
Resources required to build a new munitions depot
The Data and the People that Need to Know are Around the World
Okinawa Guam Marshall Islands
San Diego, CA Washington, D.C.
OPEN SOURCE
Around the World !
Okinawa
Guam
Marshall Islands
San Diego, CA
Washington, D.C.
All Data is Integrated!
We mean………
The People that Have the Data and Need to Know areAround the World
Okinawa
Guam
Marshall Islands
San Diego, CA
Washington, D.C.
Staff Receive Reports and Dashboards Real Time or by Schedule
All Information is shared! REAL TIME
The tanks will arrive in Guam in 2 weeks
The jet fuel costs for all fours sites by fuel type with shortages highlighted are displayed.
The resources required to build a new munitions depot shows a shortage of cement in Okinawa
Fortunately, excess cement is in San Diego and can compensate to remove the bottleneck
By Combining Data From Multiple Sources Actionable Information is Known
… and Solutions Become Revealed
… Issues are Quickly Exposed…
Jet Fuel Costs
Turn Disconnected Data Sets into Actionable Information
So you are telling us that we can get all of the necessary information to understand the issues and take corrective action as soon as possible?
Mission Accomplished!

What If AnalyzerWhat-If Analyzer is a stand-alone application connected to a Primavera Database or Excel that allows a user to see multi-year allocations of funds based on a project data. The user can then perform what-if scenarios by moving, copying, adding and deleting activities, creating relationships between them and then rescheduling the activities. The scenario can be saved as a WIA file and reloaded into What-If Analyzer at a later date.
