Enterprise Information Management (EIM) is an often overlooked but key area within the BI space. EIM is concerned with ensuring that the beautifully created and designed reports, dashboards and scorecards that have been created have real value. A stunning report is nothing unless the data behind is verified as being complete, accurate and of real quality. EIM can be seen as the data quality component of any BI solution. e.bi has experts in Extract Transform and Load (ETL) and Enterprise Quality Assurance and is actively recruiting consultants who bring Data quality skills to the organisation.

EIM can fundamentally be split into four sections:

Data Integration:

Business Objects provides an ETL tool for Batch and real time processing. Business Objects also provides data federation capabilities for on-demand information access that combines data across data marts, data warehouses, operational data stores, and transactional systems. e.bi has skilled staff capable of delivering on ETL projects in this space and is committed to growing its presence in a key area of BI.
