Altair Engineering invites you to participate in this important complimentary event which will help provide insights into how businesses are“Elevating Data to Knowledge”.
Analytics08 will be held along with the HTC 2008, (4th India/ASEAN HyperWorks Technology Conference 2008) on 1 August 2008 as part of the global conference series, with similar events scheduled across North America, Europe and rest of Asia.
Competition and the ongoing pressure to run a profitable enterprise is the biggest challenge that organisations face today. This phenomenon is constant across the industry segments and pronounced in organisations of all size. Enterprises, in the past, have invested huge amount of money into IT applications only to ensure that they are in control of their businesses and ready to react to the dynamically changing business environment. In the process, they hold large amounts of data, yet unable to derive the key insights they desire to drive their businesses in the most optimum fashion. Data has never been looked upon as a key asset, and never utilized appropriately for scientific decision making.
Business Intelligence applications are designed just to provide that insight to the key decision makers in the organisation. It arms them with information in the right form, at the right time, at the right place that makes the difference between just managing an enterprise and managing a highly profitable enterprise. Business Intelligence will help address the “Why” of “What” has happened and can be extended to predict “What will” happen in the future.
This conference will be of immense benefit to your enterprise if any of the following scenarios is symptomatic of the situation that you face today;
- Your enterprise has many sources of data and it takes tremendous effort to cull data out to make any interpretation of the existing situation
- Your enterprise has multiple versions of truth
- You are unable to locate important information, and especially as and when you need it and in the form so critical for you to arrive at a decision
- The opportunity cost, if at all known, due to time latency of information is very high
- Changing governmental regulations straining your reporting environment
- IT team spends more time in generating reports than focus on building a competitive infrastructure for adding value to the business
- Business users unable to perform in-depth analysis
- Primary tool for analysis within your organisation is a spreadsheet

- Which are my best selling products and is it same across all the locations?
