: Squeezing relevant data out of SAP
An SEI-CMM Level 5, PCMM Level 3 and ISO 9001 company, Mumbai-based Siemens Information Systems Limited (SISL) is a Systems Integrator and Total Solutions Provider. SISL provides software solutions to a global clientele in the areas of telecommunications, healthcare, manufacturing, the public sector, utilities and government.

It is also the largest provider of SAP R/3, an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution, in India.
The Challenge: Turning Data Into Useful Information
Since SISL provides ERP solutions to its customers, timely access to data and optimum network performance is critical. SISL needed a flexible solution that could provide dynamic analysis of its data. Due to adverse effects on network performance, IT did not encourage proactive analysis on the SAP server. In addition, because existing data could not be combined with non-SAP data, separate analysis was required. SISL had to locate the information buried within its various databases, hampering it from getting a complete picture of its business trend
The Solution:
CleverPath™ Forest & Trees Enables Dynamic Data Analysis.
Using CleverPath™ Forest & Trees from Computer Associates International, Inc. (CA), Pranali
Consultants, a CA solution partner, developed a business intelligence application for SISL that could extract data from SAP and other applications.
