Microsoft BI
Microsoft has simplified the toolkit required for the development of Business Intelligence solutions. If you have invested in MS Office, SQL Server and Sharepoint you already have the tools in place to implement BI, and would benefit from working with a Microsoft Partner.

We are capable of providing end to end Business Intelligence and Information Management solutions, through the following recognised Microsoft specialities:

With the release of SQL 2008 R2 the Microsoft Business Intelligence stack has matured into a key player in the Business Intelligence arena.
The 2011 Gartner BI Magic Quadrant report indicates Microsoft as leaders of the "Ability to Execute" indicator, and second only to SAP and IBM on the scale of "Completeness of Vision". Part of the reason for this result is the fact that many organisations have recognised the potential of the Microsoft BI stack to allow scalable implementations, that can grow with the business with relatively small initial costs for the projects, and the rapid ROI that these projects can yield.
Organisations that have spare capacity on their current SQL infrastructure have successfully implemented working POC's and quick win's within that spare capacity and have then been able to scale up the solution once the entire organisation has seen the benefits and adopted it.
At IT Performs our Microsoft Certified consultants can assist you in recognising this spare capacity, planning an agile / PRINCE2 project that can deliver rapid ROI while allowing for the natural evolution of the solution. and anticipating the requirement to scale out the solution. Our consultants bring a wealth of experience gained through multiple implementations, and this coupled with up to date knowledge of the Microsoft stack allow projects to be planned with foresight and problems anticipated and avoided.
When the full stack of SQL 2008 R2, SharePoint Server 2010 and the PowerPivot for Excel are implemented together, the end result is a fully functional BI suite encompassing Data Integration, Data Warehousing (either in RDBMS, or MDBMS) through to a fully version controlled, collaborative environment within SharePoint Server. This gives users access to Reporting, Score cards, Dashboards and KPI's.
Our consultants have experience with all aspects of the Microsoft BI stack, and can assist with any part of a BI project.
Our Microsoft Certified Consultants can provide:
- Project management
- Technical Enablement
- Customised Workshops
- Analysis Services Tuning
- Scale Out planning
