A great enabling technology we’ve used to accelerate the reporting process

Posted in HyperRoll at 1:08 pm by irusgroup

We’re experts in knowing what enabling technology is out there to help our clients do the various tasks they need to accomplish eg. Faster reporting. One technology we’ve been particularly excited about for years is HyperRoll.. We’ve used the HyperRoll technology numerous times when our clients were having significant difficulty producing reports in a reasonable amount of time. Using this technology, we’ve been able to accelerate query response by 10 to 400 times. This means a potential time savings of days! When our clients can’t get to the data readily and act upon information, they are delayed in making smart, sound business decisions. HyperRoll eliminates wasted time waiting for reports and gives our clients the information they need to make better business decisions that will impact their business. 

The HyperRoll Data Performance Management Suite provides a diverse array of enhancements to existing systems that translate into benefits for business users. HyperRoll can: 

  • Meet or exceed terms of service level agreements for reporting performance

  • Redirect existing personnel to higher-value, business-focused efforts. 

At the same time, the HyperRoll Data Performance Management Suite reduces the technical strain on existing systems while boosting their performance. Specifically, HyperRoll can: 

  • Shorten loading by up to 200 times

Why we frequently get invited to team on Federal contracts

Posted in Federal at 1:16 pm by irusgroup

Government prime contractors often look to Irus Group as a key subcontractor due to our functional and technical expertise. Few consulting companies have the expertise in Federal and commercial budgeting and planning that our consultants have. We’ve been building and developing solutions using technologies from Oracle, Hyperion and Cognos for a long time and have continued to be a valuable partner for our government customers who use the systems. Our consultants always sit at the table when our customers are strategizing on ways to put better budgeting and planning processes in place. All of our teaming partners view us as more than an Oracle DBA or applications shop and value our expertise in Business Intelligence and implementing Corporate Performance Management (CPM) solutions. 

On the technical side, we have some of the smartest Oracle Business Intelligence consultants in the industry working for the company. Our clients reap the rewards of having consultants on the team who are excited about the technology, are certified in its use, and appreciate how it helps them solve their business problems. The primes that bring us onto their team know that their Federal end user customers will benefit from a first-class solution.
