Scope and Skills

In a context in which awareness that the analysis of Big Data is a fundamental tool for the development and growth of its business volume continues to grow, an increasing number of organizations decide to direct new investments that go, based on the level of maturity reached, from the preparedness of an architecture capable of managing the data to be analysed, to experimentations of analysis models of increasing complexity, and even to the change of processes in a data-driven perspective.

In this scenario, it is essential to be able to offer fast-to-create solutions, with contained costs and able to grow and adapt to the continuous evolution of the analysis requirements.

A Cloud data platform, such as the one offered by Google, is definitely the best way to achieve these goals.
Based on the Clients’ needs, we design and build application architectures by selecting the most suitable tools, among those available on the Google Cloud Platform, integrating them, if necessary, with Open Source code and components.

In order to combine speed of execution and high quality, even in the face of frequently evolving requests, in our projects we prefer an Agile approach, using DevOps tools such as the automation of infrastructure activities (IaC), of tests and releases (CI/CD). Thanks to the Data Vault modeling technology, the data model is also designed so that it can easily incorporate integrations of new data sources and/or the management of new information within already integrated data sources.

Scope and skills

Companies that need to produce regulatory disclosures often face with the following issues:

• Sources of data and output software are different and not efficiently integrated.
• Versioning is inefficient and this leads to risk of losing or overwrite data when different users work.
• Absence of a structured compliance and audit view.
• Absence of structured workflow processes.
• Inefficient output generation, e.g. tables in Management Report are images and must be inserted manually every time data changes
• Qintesi assists its customers to solve these issues implementing SAP Disclosure Management solution with a consolidated methodology, developed in several projects in major Italian companies.

 

Our skills

• Preparation of a “reporting package” in groups of companies:
  this package aims to produce, through the use of SAP Disclosure Management, the periodic reports and the consolidated financial statements required by the supervisory authority.
• Analysis and implementation of reporting models, designed to produce the main disclosure outputs required by the insurance legislation, such as the Audit Report, the IVASS files, the Supervision Forms, the SFCR-RSR and the XBRL files for the Solvency II laws.
• Design and implementation of different types of internal reports for insurance companies (Risk Dashboard, Related Parties), utilities and service companies.
• Support for the business users in the closing periods and for the production of the aforementioned reports.

From a technical perspective, a Disclosure Management project consists of several components:

• SAP FIM: a specialized ETL for the EPM applications, used to collect and aggregate data. It provides connectivity to SAP (ECC, BW) and non-SAP applications (Oracle). In more simple scenarios, also SAP transactions may be used instead of FIM.
• AP BPC: suitable for simplifying the report generation, where data is usually stored in a BPC model; without SAP BPC, SAP queries are used.
• DM web: this is the main program in which files (report templates) are stored and where users manage their activities.
• MS Office (Word with Excel files linked): that is the environment in which data is retrieved from BPC or directly from the ERP.
• DM XBRL add-in: is an additional component that allows the creation of XBRL instances, validation of Data and excel previews.

Scope and skills

To be competitive in a constantly evolving market, companies must equip themselves to manage a large volume of data, characterized by exponential growth, and analyse it in real time, thus transforming the resulting complexity into opportunities.

In order to extract value from this amount of information, traditional Business Intelligence (BI) tools are no longer sufficient: it is essential to have advanced analysis solutions that use statistical models of predictive analysis and machine learning models, applicable to various business areas (Marketing, HR, Management Control, Treasury) and Industries (Insurance and Banking, Fashion, Transport and Manufacturing, Consumer, Technology).

Thanks to a dedicated team with a strong mathematical and statistical background, Qintesi accompanies its clients in this process of BI evolution, creating Advanced Analytics solutions based on SAP components.

Scope and skills

Data discovery and self-service BI tools have experienced a big growth over the past years, due to the Business users’ need of more autonomy and agility when it comes to integrating, analyzing and visualizing data. With largely decentralized content creation, connecting and governing the efforts of business users is becoming increasingly challenging: the required agility must not take place at the expense of quality for critical use cases or efficiency. On the other hand, traditional Business Intelligence, strong in data governance, grants the needed trust in data and efficiency in decision-making. So, either traditional Business Intelligence and data discovery tools must coexist in a complete Business Intelligence system. One of the aims in Qintesi is to support our customers in finding the right weight of each tool, on the basis of the real use cases.

 

Our skills

Design and implementation of operational, management and strategic reporting models, focused on supporting decision-making and the optimization of business performance:

• Operational reporting embedded in the existing workflows using physical or virtual data models.
• Classic standard applications with “pixel-perfect” reporting.
• Analysis and data discovery applications to allow the business users to freely browse their data.
• Dashboard and mobile applications for the top management, aimed at monitoring the main KPI’s with guided analysis paths
• Ability to combine cloud and on-premise applications.
• Support for the IT users in the application performance tuning.

Scope and skills

Despite new data sources, trends and technologies challenge the usefulness of data warehouses, they establish a “single version of the truth”, providing a single, comprehensive source of current and historical business information.

The classic data warehouse architecture is too inflexible and can no longer face with the requirements of new business intelligence, which requires advanced analytics of operational data, even in real time.

The data warehouse must evolve into a lightweight and cheapest architecture to permit IT to respond more rapidly and more effectively to the users’ needs.

Following the specific use cases, in our projects we combine logical and physical data models, choosing between an application driven approach (using e.g. SAP BW/4HANA) or an SQL driven approach (using the native features of SAP HANA Platform), harmonizing historical and real-time data.

 

Our expertise

• Data Warehousing:
1. design and implementation of ETL processes: integration of diversified data sources, data quality and data profiling management
2. design and implementation of physical and virtual multidimensional data models, in order to allow querying of business data using SAP or non-SAP reporting tools.

• Big Data Warehousing:
1. design and implementation of high-performance databases for managing large volumes of data, coming from structured and unstructured sources;
2. design of hybrid data warehouses with data lake integration.

• Definition of integrated systems for the harmonization of data collected from sensors and technological equipment (IoT)
