Intellient – Adding insight to business

Intellient specialises in Oracle Hyperion EPM & Business Intelligence Solutions. They form part of EOH Oracle Services and are the exclusive local reseller, support provider and preferred delivery partner for the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management and BI solution suite.

Intellient helps their local and global clients measure & manage performance so that they can better anticipate results and drive growth and profitability. This is achieved by optimising the entire management cycle through the provision of robust, powerful and easy to use information platforms. Furthermore, they properly integrate all management related processes to ensure efficiency and consistency in decision making. This is fundamental in ensuring strategy execution and therefore predictable results.

Intellient has over 100 blue chip customers, including 14 of the top 25 public companies as our clients. These companies operate in a variety of industries, including Financial Services, Mining, Manufacturing, Retail, Pharmaceutical, Telecommunications and Logistics. Clients may start with addressing financial consolidation and reporting requirements and grow into other solutions such as Budgeting and Forecasting, Performance Scorecarding and more advanced and automated reporting. Organisations embracing this application platform achieve “connected” planning and reporting cycles and are able to internalise and adapt to change more quickly than their peers. It has been proven that organisations using these world-class financial management practises deliver 2.4 times higher returns to their shareholders.

Since acquiring Hyperion in 2007, Oracle has been acknowledged as having the most integrated and comprehensive Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) system in support of these requirements. In delivering EPM solutions for the past 18 years, Intellient has accumulated an immense amount of implementation experience. We have a large team of certified consultants offering services ranging from project management to application consulting and training on all Hyperion applications aimed at maximising the return on investment. These applications will assist in addressing critical strategic and operational issues according to priorities specific to your business.

It is widely recognised that Enterprise Performance Management (EPM), also widely known as CPM, and Business Intelligence (BI) should support performance management and organisational decision-making and Oracle Hyperion products are able to do exactly this by:

• Creating a positive impact on the management cycle.
• Measuring performance.
• Driving growth and profitability.

These solutions allow customers to embrace the importance of what is happening in their business, as well as enable insight into business drivers and ultimately provide the ability to link strategy with execution.

Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management and BI software

Oracle’s Hyperion is the global leader in Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) software. More than 12,000 customers in 90 countries rely on Hyperion both for insight into current business performance and to drive performance improvement. With Hyperion software, businesses collect, analyze, and share data across the organisation, linking strategies to plans and monitoring execution against goals. Hyperion integrates financial management applications with a business intelligence platform into a single management system for the global enterprise. Hyperion offers a single, integrated, flexible process with which to steer the performance and drive the accountability of your organisation. Moreover, it simplifies the delivery of information through a unified, personalised workspace with drag-and-drop capabilities and seamless integration with Microsoft Office.

The system consists of a business intelligence platform, a modular suite of financial applications and a common set of foundation services. These features combine into a unified architecture that eliminates the challenges of managing multiple, disparate systems.

“Improved visibility and auditability, greater reporting quality and enhanced accountability have all been enabled through the implementation of Hyperion System 9. Our financial managers and officers operate autonomously, yet are empowered to make their own decisions, while the entire financial process is overseen and managed centrally.” Sylvia Pugin, Project Manager for Hyperion System 9 at FirstRand Bank.
