Business Intelligence

In every area of the public sector, employees must deliver the best value for taxpayers, achieve higher levels of service and streamline decision making. All this is being demanded in a climate of shrinking budgets and resources.

The public sector uses Cognos business intelligence in many different ways to improve the management of their day-to-day work processes. Cognos delivers information from data sources enabling employees to make better decisions, act more quickly, and have an impact where is matters most.

Cognos business intelligence has delivered value across the full spectrum of public sector organisations, ranging from social and environmental services to defence organisations. We make bold promises, but we back them up with the right products, the longest track record in government of any BI vendor, and the people to make things happen.

Government agencies face a number of significant challenges in creating effective e-business strategies. To address these challenges, Cognos software provides user-friendly, Web-based reporting and data retrieval, a critical element to user self-service on e-Government Web sites. Users can find information and analyse it over the Internet, or extranets, and intranet environments.

UK public sector organisations have been able to increase efficiency by streamlining data integration, improving accountability through managed reporting and scorecards, and enhancing their online initiatives with easy-to-use, Web based reporting.
