Typical Questions Prior To XI Migration
The Fact Gap
T-Mobile Case Study
Dashboard Manager allows T-Mobile to attend to multiple customers with the same issue. In the past, whereas one customer complaint letter may have led to meetings and discussions on that individual case, the attention today is on how to recognise similar problems from customers across the whole business and determine which solutions to offer them all.
According to Frank van Roekel, IT manager for the project, "It's remarkable that, even in the IT department, there continues to be more and more interest in the dashboard.

Nutricia Case Study
Nutricia had the requirement to implement a Data Warehouse to deliver reporting capabilities to the U.K. userbase. It was critical that there was minimal interruption to the source systems,in this case mainly the existing ERP system.

ITP, because of its specialist business intelligence and data warehousing knowledge, was invited to discuss Data Warehousing with Nutricia from the perspective of strategy, direction and implementing technology.
