Automated Report Creation

A major factor limiting effective business management and decision-making is getting access to information that is both accurate and up-to-date. Business and project managers typically do not have direct access to structured data, such as in corporate databases, due to both technical and data-integrity management issues. Neither do they tend to have access to unstructured data, such as in internal reports, or external data sources, including websites. Getting this data often requires the intervention of multiple individuals, including analysts, database administrators and scientists, to manually analyze and collate the data into reports. This process reduces the efficiency of these workers and can lead to inconsistently produced reports, undermining their utility and ultimately risking making bad decisions. What is needed is a means to automatically produce reports, including data retrieval, integration, analysis and collation so that the information is always accurate, up-to-date, and presented in an easily consumable form.
