Overview

Paragon�s unique solution set, Unified Reporting�, delivers on the promise of Business Intelligence by helping clients collect, synthesize and analyze information for faster and better decision support.

Far too often, the implementation of business intelligence tools has been about serving the needs of the few � those infamous power users, who, according to industry research, typically account for less than 1% of information consumers in an enterprise. Paragon's Unified Reporting� Solutions (URS), however, is about information delivery that extends beyond the power user to reach all decision-makers and even the casual information consumer. Paragon is committed to the precept of empowering decision-makers at all levels � that is, anyone responsible for managing or impacting a business process � by delivering the right information, in the right format, at the right time.

Unified Reporting� focuses on unifying that fragmented bunch of technologies and vendor products that currently comprise your IT architecture. Ours are solutions that eliminate the excuses of disparate legacy data sources. URS let you proactively extend information across the enterprise and deliver a shared version of �the truth�.

By design, these are solutions that pay for themselves. Our business analysts will work with you to ensure our solution delivers business advantages and a tangible return on your investment.

For some clients, URS will represent the strategic, cost-conscious implementation of Enterprise Business Intelligence Suites (EBIS) such as those provided by Cognos, Business Objects, Informatica, Actuate, Crystal, and MicroStrategy. For others, it will mean constructing a framework that supports a best of breed approach to BI vendor tools � and living with the harsh reality that in many instances redundant vendor products will persist within the enterprise. In every case, however, URS will be about leveraging the enormous amounts of data already housed in your CRM, ERP, and HR operational systems. In many instances, URS will come to represent your best opportunity to salvage promised returns on previous investments in Data Warehouse and Customer Relationship Management projects.

Paragon�s Unified Reporting Solutions provide a compelling value proposition in functional domain areas such as Sales & Marketing, Operations, Finance & Accounting, and Human Relations. Wherever implemented, Unified Reporting Solutions will help you gain insight into operations, products, and customers � and make informed decisions that increase revenue streams and eliminate unnecessary costs.
