- business requirements: the first step for any Performance Management project is to understand, structure and obtain a shared vision of the business requirements. Keyrus, based on its knowledge gained in many industries, gathers, prioritizes and translates business requirements into performance management requirements.
- prototyping: performance management environments are preferably implemented in short iterations. When a rapid approach is selected in the context of new architecture or new technologies, prototyping helps to gain consensus and understanding of what performance management can actually deliver.
- proof-of-concept: to demonstrate that the capabilities of the environment answer the performance requirements, the proof-of-concept is a first choice option. Thanks to our mastery level in various technologies, we are able to deliver proof-of-concepts quickly.
- functional architecture: a blueprint of the system architecture at a functional level is designed by defining and organizing the components that will make the performance management solution work.
- solution design: solution design activities translate the business and functional requirements of the solution into an actionable design. Design activities are performed at all levels of the solution: back-end components, storage components, calculation components and information delivery (front-end) components.
- technical architecture: technical architecture services focus on the data architecture, the technical architecture and the physical architecture of the solution. The architecture of the solution is one of the phases where the most critical decisions are taken, which will impact the whole project on many aspects. More than being a one-shot activity, architectural efforts are required throughout the whole project lifecycle.
- solution development: development activities focus on the development of the back-end components (store and ETL processes) and front-end components (reports, semantic layer etc.) based on the design documents produced during the previous phases. Unit testing of the components being developed is part of this phase.
- solution testing: a solution's success can only be guaranteed from the moment the business, functional and non-functional requirements are met. Keyrus organizes solution testing services as a set of continuous activities throughout all phases of a performance management initiative, covering all deliverables required.
- quality assurance: Keyrus considers quality management as a cornerstone of the improvement and tactical programs to be set up in performance management initiatives. Starting with a project quality plan, quality management is performed throughout the entire project, thanks to a formalized approach and a structured delivery organization.
- solution deployment: deployment services embrace all activities required to make the solution available to the business community.
- change management: throughout our realization of multiple BI projects over the years, Keyrus has learned to pay close attention to the impact of the changes that are evoked by the project. We have successfully installed several supportive processes that are mandatory to be able to convince all involved parties submitted to the change and to obtain their necessary cooperation.
- coaching: in order to facilitate the transition between the Keyrus teams and the customer teams, coaching can be organized during the project execution, allowing the client resources to gradually gain knowledge and techniques to be able to further maintain the solution and make it evolve along with the changing performance management requirements.
