Blueprint and Antivia partner to deliver dashboard success to UK customers

July 5, 2011 - PRLog -- 5th July 2011, Leeds, UK - Business Intelligence specialist, Antivia, which is trusted by SAP customers around the world to deliver increased value from their dashboard deployments, today announced that it has partnered with London based Blueprint, who will offer Antivia's XWIS product as part of the dashboard solutions they deliver.

Blueprint is a Business Intelligence solutions specialist with nearly 20 years' experience working with proven technology from leading vendors including SAP BusinessObjects.

Paul Frith, CEO of Blueprint commented: "We partnered with Antivia, because XWIS enables our consultants to deliver enterprise Xcelsius dashboard projects more quickly and with more functionality than would otherwise be possible. The productivity gains provided by XWIS mean our customers will see a quicker time to value for their dashboard projects."

Frith continued: "We also have customers who'd like to use Xcelsius for tactical, or what you might call opportunistic, business intelligence projects. To do this they need to combine data from their SAP BusinessObjects environment with data, which for one reason or another, isn't part of their corporate BI environment. Typically, these projects have short shelf lives, so need to be delivered quickly. XWIS opens the door to us delivering these types of project for our customers on top of their existing Business Objects infrastructure, and far more easily than with Xcelsius alone."

Mark Hudson, CEO of Antivia, added: "I've known the team at Blueprint for a long time and I've watched them build a loyal base of public and private sector clients. Their highly experienced team of consultants has been delivering enterprise dashboard projects for many years and I'm delighted that they'll now be using XWIS to create Xcelsius dashboards more quickly and more cost-effectively for their customers."
