The sheer volume of data within the organization can be overwhelming, yet data alone cannot give you a competitive edge. Only by unlocking the hidden knowledge can you use data to gain insight into customers, markets, and even your own business performance. We can help you with the following solutions:
Data Analysis:
Employees should be able to use a business intelligence solution to conduct their own analyses and produce their own results. This requires integrating data analysis into their daily routines by integrating analysis functionality with other productivity tools. Office Suite does this by delivering powerful analysis capabilities in a familiar, intuitive interface. In addition, because the Office Suite programs connect directly to OLAP data sources, your employees can have access to enterprise data from their desktops.
This is enabled by the Office Suite using the following components:
- Excel – Provides multidimensional views using powerful pivot-table and pivot-chart functionality, as well as offline storage of data
- Office Web Components – Excel’s powerful features in a web browser!
- Data Analyzer – Rich visualization and trend analysis, using rich color and graphics
- MapPoint – Providing geospatial capabilities

Balanced Scorecard:
If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. This is the philosophy behind the balanced scorecard methodology, a performance management approach developed by Robert Kaplan and David Norton. Balanced scorecard methodology is at the heart of today’s successful businesses.
The Microsoft Balanced Scorecard Framework provides a technology environment and an integrated set of tools your company can use to derive maximum value from its balanced scorecard solution. The framework is not a packaged application. Instead, it integrates a variety of Microsoft packaged applications and industry standards to automate a Balanced Scorecard. It consists of a set of tools and methods to help both business users and developers find success faster. The software is no longer a hurdle to overcome in scorecard development but an asset to speed development.
Empower Solutions can help you build solutions for your Balanced Scorecard requirements using the Microsoft Balanced Scorecard Framework (BSFC) which uses SQL Server, Office Web Components and Sharepoint Portal Server as its core technologies. This is not a shrink-wrapped product but a solution that can be made available only through certified partners.
