The State department currently lacks a comprehensive and efficient system for creating, maintaining, and securing business intelligence reports and dashboards. This deficiency hampers the ability to provide timely and accurate information to stakeholders, comply with regulatory requirements, and support strategic initiatives.
The existing data management infrastructure is outdated and inefficient, leading to performance bottlenecks, limited data accessibility, and inadequate security measures. As a result, business users and report developers struggle to access relevant data, hindering their ability to make informed decisions and provide valuable insights. Additionally, the lack of integration between reporting tools and other applications further complicates the reporting process and limits automation capabilities.
To address these challenges, the department requires a solution that enhances its reporting capabilities, improves data management, and ensures data security. The solution must include the research, design, and implementation of appropriate Cognos data packages, development of reports, maintenance of data models, integration with external applications, and performance tuning. Additionally, it should provide education and knowledge transfer to users, manage software upgrades, and deliver regular status reports to management.
The proposed solution offered by Radian Solutions for the project includes the following components:
