 Major Pharmaceutical Research Company

Business Problem: A major pharmaceutical research company wanted to optimize sales by aligning its product categories with customer purchasing habits. The Company also wanted to track the interaction between its sales force and customer base over time, location, and product category to create an effective promotional campaign strategy.

Solution: Using Hyperion Essbase and Oracle, On Target Technologies, Inc. (OTT) designed and implemented a powerful OLAP application that helped the Company understand its data better, improve sales force efficiency and answer management's strategic marketing concerns. Both management and the sales force are able to access the database "24/7" thanks to its web-enabled, multi-tiered architecture.

 Major Domestic Airline

Business Problem: The Company's new ERP system, composed of dozens of strategic business system components, was unable to properly analyze the millions of transactional records within its rapidly growing databases. Without accurate data, strategic planning, forecasting activities, and closing cycles were affected.

Solution: On Target Technologies, Inc. redesigned an existing Hyperion Essbase application to better analyze the Company's SAP data in a much more timely manner. The new system was able to access daily information from SAP as well as from many other concurrently online systems. This allowed for rapid and accurate consolidations of business intelligence data, providing financial reporting, forecasting and planning functionality.

"When Delta Air Lines embarked on a finance re-engineering effort to include enabling technologies, it was important that we had the finest support for our analytical applications to insure the most for our end-users. Delta chose On Target Technologies for their unique strength of having exceptional technical expertise combined with comprehensive business understanding. On Target Technologies has exceeded our expectations." -Walter Taylor, Vice President & ERP Program Executive

 Major Financial Services Firm

Business Problem: The firm was unable to research its mutual fund sales data in a timely manner because of technical limitations in their existing software. Analysts needed to make repeated requests to IT, then manually collate data in Excel to complete their work.

Solution: On Target Technologies, Inc. designed an application that allowed analysts to complete their analysis in an Essbase model. By dynamically recreating the model each day and providing measures that were previously calculated in Excel, advanced analysis was possible. Business analysis was done in a more timely fashion and management could respond more quickly to market forces.
