The late 1990s and early 21st century have been and will continue to be noteworthy for the advent of new-style business applications such as e-business, customer relationship management and knowledge management. In addition, many thousands of organisations have implemented ERP systems. Common to all these applications is the customer and business related data that flows through and between them, and management's need to obtain a cohesive view of this data and turn it into meaningful information.

Testimonials

“...We outsourced the maintenance of our data warehouse to leverage off KID's extensive domain experience. We manage more than 300 000 families, so the amount of data generated is enormous. It is vital for us that the system is maintained and run efficiently so we experience no performance problems. Ultimately this means that medical aids can maximise their resources and offer their clients, the public, the most affordable health cover available. We use the data warehouse, as KID has set it up, to structure scheme benefits and develop new risk management products...”

I get regular requests for access from the business users at Sara Lee. Targets for the reps and the commissions for agents can be quickly and accurately calculated. We are also able to get a much clearer picture as to the reasons for issuing credit....”

Deborah Alderson [Decision Support Analyst]
