Speed and simplicity for service providers and owners

An integrated range of components designed for easy connection and integration makes implementation faster and more straightforward. The knowledge that each component is made to work harmoniously with the overall system ensures your peace of mind and a reduction, if not eradication, of implementation downtime.

Efficiency and comfort for owners & stakeholders

Increasing a BI/CPM Architecture’s efficiency increases its monetary value and the respect stakeholders have for it. By optimizing processes and data quality it not only means extra comfort but also a reduction in overall downtime, thus resulting in increased revenue.

The unique approach chosen by HOLZER & Associates Ltd balances the importance of strategy development against execution by keeping focus and alignment through six key enablers:

- Data (Sources and Targets)
- Processes
- Business Cycles and Timeframe
- Organization and people
- Location
- Goals and Prioritization

While often strategy development is the natural starting point of CPM, HOLZER & Associates Ltd recognizes it as the start of a continuous loop.

Each individual is accountable for strategy execution but our Program Management Services oversee the alignment of all management processes within strategy. It safeguards the strategic focus and alignment within the entire organisation. BI/DWH/EPM processes included:

- standardizing and developing unified reporting
- safeguarding change processes
- maintaining and improving data quality
