NORCROSS, Ga., Feb. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- BravePoint®, Inc., leading provider of technology agnostic business intelligence (BI) and data warehousing solutions, is participating for the first time at The Data Warehousing Institute (TDWI) World Conference in Las Vegas this February.  BravePoint is announcing its unique approach to BI and data warehousing implementation, called the BI Blueprint.  This approach combines a technology agnostic outlook with a problem solving focus to achieve a collaborative solution that is refreshingly customer centric.

• Provides company with the planned end result of the BI project
• Lists future opportunities to build upon the solution and highlights business process improvements
• Estimates the effort required to complete each of the tasks identified in the Blueprint

"Our approach to your BI project always begins with a discovery session in which we define the required key performance indicators, or KPIs, with the stakeholders in your organization," says Michael Marriage, Principal Architect and Strategist for the BravePoint BI Blueprint team.  "We are looking to uncover opportunities that will be the most beneficial to the organization.  An opportunity may come in the form of a key performance indicator, an automation initiative, or even a business process improvement effort. We believe this value-added, customized approach sets us apart from other BI providers, and we are thrilled to announce our solution here at the Vegas TDWI event."

"Business Intelligence that is unique and customized for an individual organization can be a challenging and complex undertaking," says BravePoint Vice President of Sales, Sean Garguilo.  "There have been applications on the market for decades that provide a one size fits all approach to this process, but ours is one of the first to provide a technology agnostic, collaborative, problem solving approach to address both present and future BI needs."

This approach makes it easy for companies to identify the KPIs that will be most meaningful to their increased efficiency and business process improvement.  The process achieves the buy-in of key stakeholders of the organization from day one and provides the entire team with a no surprises path of information as the process moves forward.

The BravePoint BI BluePrint provides: 

• A clear cut objective of your BI project based upon needs identified during the discovery process
• A recommended best practice approach to achieve the objectives and avoid pitfalls
• A list of identified enhancements to achieve future BI needs
• Identification of business process improvements that can be addressed
• An estimation of the work required to complete each task identified in the BI Blueprint

"The BravePoint BI BluePrint approach is the result of 20+ years of expertise and experience of some of the best BI architects and business process analysts in the business," added Mr. Garguilo.  "We believe such an approach is needed in the BI space and we look forward to helping our clients implement customized, smart BI solutions to gain a competitive advantage and a quick return on investment."
