The complete BusinessObjects platform — semantic layers, operational reporting, and dashboards that executives actually open.

The BO platform stack: one data truth, one semantic layer, the right client per audience.
01

The semantic layer

Universes and BICS connectivity turn a data warehouse into a self-service platform: business-friendly names, governed calculations and one version of the truth for every client tool.

02

Operational reporting

WEBI and Crystal Reports for scheduled, pixel-perfect and compliance-grade output — as with the GxP-relevant LIMS quality reporting I built at Sandoz.

03

Dashboards & beyond

More than ten Xcelsius executive dashboards with full financial scope at Sandoz — and the migration paths onward when a platform moves to QlikSense or SAC.

04

Platform thinking

BusinessObjects is strongest as part of a whole: BICS on BW queries, LiveOffice inside workbooks, Advanced Analysis for OLAP — each component used exactly where it earns its place.
