architecture of data warehousing, OLAP and reporting can
shorten the time of building weekly report from 1-2 days to
1-2 hours.

increase productivity by minimizing manual data re- entry
which thereby increase the portion of daily tasks analysis,
reduce non -standard manual reports, increase transparent
inter-departments, and raise employee awareness to their work
process, before and after."
