Business Intelligence Competency Centers: Customer Successes

Organizations use Business Intelligence Competency Centers (BICCs) from Cognos, the world’s leading provider of business intelligence software, to maximize the use and benefits of their BI solution throughout the organization.

U.S. Coast Guard

Recently, the U.S. Coast Guard was recognized for the successful implementation of its Aviation Logistics Management Information System (ALMIS) initiative, which makes use of Cognos BI. This win marks the third consecutive year that a Cognos customer has received a Technology ROI award.

Find out how the Coast Guard is able to improve visibility into its supply chain; enable transparent data access and reporting for its air station personnel; and achieve over $500,000 in cost avoidance by leveraging Cognos business intelligence with a BICC.

TELUS

TELUS implemented a standard BI solution from Cognos and expects that with the help of a BICC, the solution will reduce cost and drive future BI success. According to Simon Gratton, director of business intelligence at TELUS Business Transformation, "Standardization on Cognos 8 BI coupled with a common, adaptable and repeatable framework in the form of a BICC will both reduce the total cost of ownership and act as a positive catalyst in achieving long-term success in BI implementations."
