SAP
Intricity is a pioneer in BI integration for SAP. Intricity's consultants were among the first to deploy Business Objects in SAP environments, and have been doing so since long before SAP acquired Business Objects.
SAP environments are inheritently complex because SAP is often deployed in large organizations with many lines of business, and a large, and demanding user base. There are also many different approaches to BI for SAP. Not only have SAP presented their users with options through BEx Reporting, and the Netweaver Business Warehouse, but many other BI vendors have sought to provide integration to enable the use of their toolsets for SAP customers.
Good News
In January of 2008 SAP announced the completion of their acquisition of Business Objects. For SAP users this meant that they finally have a best of breed Business Intelligence platform that was hetergeneous in nature and could thus accomodate legacy data, with a commitment to deep integration and full support from SAP. Shortly following the acquisition SAP announced a roadmap for BI which marked an end of life for BEx reporting tools, and based SAP's approach largely on the Business Objects platform.
The Challenge
This presents a challenge for those who are now looking to follow SAP's roadmap for Business Intelligence. While the move to Business Objects BI is rewarding for the SAP business user, defining the right path for your organization requires knowledge across SAP, Business Objects, and any other BI platforms or databases which may be in place.
The Solution
Intricity brings the experience and resources necessary to help you to define your own roadmap. Whatever your current state, we can help you navigate the shortest path to success with effective business intelligence including ad-hoc reporting, and dashboards derived from your R/3 or BW data.
