We’re taking off on another BI (Business Intelligence) project at Johnson & Johnson, this time for a slightly larger area — covering the whole of EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa).

Given that E.B.I.G.’s last BI project ended very successfully, with the team at GlaxoSmithKline praising our Elyane for her effort and impeccable work, there’s a good chance we’ll pull this one through as well. Elyane’s previous encounter with Johnson & Johnson was a few years back, while she was working at Axias in Antwerp and the project was somewhat smaller in geographical scale.

So, what’s Business Intelligence, you might ask? If you don’t know, you’re probably not in our target group so I shouldn’t bother explaining this here No, seriously, BI is such a specialist field that I’m not being condescending: if you don’t know anything about it, you don’t need it right now. In a nutshell, if your company is sitting on a mountain of data and you need to make sense of it, to get information out of the data, you need a dynamic, customisable and business-oriented reporting system. In other words, you need a Business Intelligence consultant to come in, set this system up using your hardware/software infrastructure (data warehouse etc.), and later on maintain it together with your team.

We advertise this service on E.B.I.G.’s Services page, but you can get detailed information about what BI means on Wikipedia.
