BEYOND DIVER: MAKING THE TRANSITION TO THE DIVER SOLUTION™ PLATFORM
Presenter: Hillary Schau, Database Programmer/Analyst, Geiger
Description: A customer for well over a decade, Geiger initially purchased Diver to satiate the information needs of a handful of power users looking for flexible ad hoc reporting and analysis capabilities. As Geiger grew, so too did their need for information. In search of a way to deliver more business-critical information to more users across the enterprise, Geiger elected to transition from the original Diver application to DI's integrated BI platform, The Diver Solution. As Geiger has more than 400 employees in 16 locations and over 450 sales partners, their transition required an in-depth understanding of the goals of each business unit and a respect for the need for seamless migration to avoid gaps in the delivery of reports and analysis capabilities that the users have come to depend on to effectively manage the business day-to-day. Attendees will be given an overview of Geiger's migration process while gaining an insider's look at both the challenges encountered and strategies used to smooth the transition. Topics covered will include:
- Getting Buy-In from Finance - Geiger's justification rationale for the migration to the client server approach.
- Maximizing Utilization and Adoption - Working with end users to help them work smarter by successfully altering their day-to-day use of the tool to make the best use of new features.
BRINGING BI TO THE NEXT LEVEL: INJECTING DATA VISUALIZATION COMPONENTS INTO YOUR IMPLEMENTATION
Presenter: David Lee, Director – Sales Analytics and Insights, SKYY Spirits
Description:
In 2006, SKYY Spirits began using Dimensional Insight's On-Demand BI platform, InterReport, to provide the sales organization and management team with better transparency into product movement of their portfolio of premium brands. Driven by the need for improved visualization of key sales and inventory metrics, SKYY recently began working with Dimensional Insight to incorporate dashboards, scorecards, and other visualizations into their existing implementation. By using Diver to automate the dashboard and scorecard development process, SKYY was able to save time and resources associated with the previous, highly manual method. This session will highlight the utilization of Diver at SKYY Spirits while discussing the benefits available to users associated with integrating visual-based BI into an existing implementation. David Lee, Director of Sales Analytics and Insights at SKYY Spirits, will share lessons learned as well as some technical and infrastructure requirements that should be considered for a smooth roll-out.
About SKYY Spirits:

DEVELOPING SCORECARDS TO ANALYZE RAW MATERIAL INPUTS
Presenter:
Theresa Manahan, Project Manager – Supply Chain, ConAgra Foods
Output levels and prices in the food processing sector are directly linked to the availability and prices of the agricultural products and other raw materials used for production. Fluctuations in food product costs, demand, and many other characteristics can dictate changes in the input composition. With many variables to consider, all housed in disparate sources or ERP system modules, ConAgra elected to purchase The Diver Solution to provide members of their Supply Chain team with a better way to analyze raw material inputs in their manufacturing processes. A customer since January 2011, ConAgra developed a scorecard that allows them to easily measure commodity performance. This session will provide attendees with insight into ConAgra's decision to append Diver onto their existing ERP system, and discuss the benefits associated with this approach. Attendees will also be shown sample views from the implementation.
About Conagra:
Headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, ConAgra Foods, Inc. is one of North America's largest packaged foods companies. ConAgra's products are available in supermarkets, as well as restaurants and food service establishments. Their consumer foods are found in 97 percent of America's households, with 25 of them ranked first or second in their category.
BRINGING COST-EFFECTIVE, SCALABLE BITO EMC WITH THE DIVER SOLUTION

Upon successful roll-out, Bob Petrillo and his Technical Operations team found themselves inundated with information requests from other users and departments looking for dashboard-driven BI capabilities. Using DivePort, Petrillo and his team were able to "link in" other parts of the organization with the same infrastructure used to support their initial implementation. Attendees will learn key strategies and techniques used by the Technical Operations Team that allowed EMC to build a scalable, cost-effective, enterprise-class BI solution.
About EMC:
EMC is the world's largest vendor of enterprise information storage platforms and services. The company employs more than 40,000 people and is represented by approximately 400 sales offices and scores of partners in more than 60 countries around the world.
TEACHING USERS HOW TO FISH: TECHNIQUES USED TO BUILD A
SELF-SERVICE BI ENVIRONMENT
THIS CLASS IS NOW FULL
Presenter:

Description:
The Wine Group subscribes to Dimensional Insight’s On-Demand BI service, InterReport, which provides key users in sales, marketing, and management with timely access to the metrics required to efficiently track, manage, and analyze their core business. The Wine Group attributes their successful venture into the world of BI to one simple principle – the ability to leverage DI’s technology to teach their users how to fish. Instead of presenting users with static report views, which would inevitably lead to additional requests for more detailed information, The Wine Group is using Diver to provide their user community with self-service capabilities by building in multiple QuickViews and TimeSeries features into their implementation. This session will showcase how The Wine Group is leveraging version 6.3 to empower users with data-driven decision-making abilities and share execution strategies for properly incorporating these features into existing DivePort views.

USING DIVER TO ESTABLISH A CULTURE OF PROACTIVE DECISION-MAKING
Presenter: Allan Morales, Senior Project Manager – Financial Planning, Continuum Health Partners
Description:
Based in New York City, Continuum experiences some of the highest patient volumes and treats one of the largest concentrations of underserved patients in the country, making timely access to operational and financial KPIs a must. After having deployed financial dashboards using The Diver Solution in 2009, Continuum began brainstorming around ways to provide users with the ability to proactively impact financial and operational issues through timelier information access. As a result, Continuum developed 'The Daily Snapshot.' The application's goal was to transition users from relying solely on historical information views to using views that fostered proactive decision-making by providing insight into current metrics (i.e. physician volumes, length of stay, patient volumes) across the health system in a near realtime basis. This session will provide attendees with a better understanding of the process and rationale applied to develop and implement 'The Daily Snapshot' while also sharing views of the application that have proven to be valuable to Continuum's end user community.
About Continuum Health Partners:
Continuum Health Partners is the parent company of a New York City based nonprofit hospital system that is comprised of five historically distinguished hospitals: Beth Israel Medical Center, St. Luke's- Roosevelt Hospital, Long Island College Hospital, and The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary.
