Better physician & patient profiling allows AsteRx & QlikView to break new ground in identifying health trends
Pharmaceutical companies are under increasing pressure to stand out from the crowd in an industry facing pricing pressures, promotional saturation, regulatory scrutiny, reduced product differentiation and increased customer and channel complexity. The healthcare market faces the dual paradox of being awash in data but often lacking in insight. Some of these companies are finding the means to pull ahead of the pack through leveraging analytics in broader and dramatically more effective ways. They are creating the organisational capability to develop and execute against differentiated insights. AsteRx was dealing with large data volumes, comprising millions of scripts from a national sample of hundreds of physicians to be analysed in a myriad of ways that would take weeks to manipulate for a single result. Customers were provided with raw research data, usually in Access or CSV format, making it difficult from which to draw insight. Furthermore, data contained lots of hierarchies, continually changing data frequency with varying levels of data aggregation. Multiple data sources also needed to be integrated with different formats, languages and data structures.

However, Allina Health is also part of the Center for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) Innovation’s Pioneer Accountable Care Organization (ACO) model, which requires a strong information infrastructure to manage and visualize the enormous amount of data that will eventually be reported to the government. The goal of this infrastructure is to bring all medical and patient information together, enabling Allina to evaluate its performance, identify areas for improvement, and discover ways for clinicians and care teams to deliver better care to patients.

Qlikview Puts Data at the Fingertips of Design Within Reach
Design Within Reach (DWR), a multichannel modern furnishings retailer, was struggling with its data management. The company’s sales and inventory data was often analyzed using Excel, and occasionally with custom built reports using SAP’s Crystal Reports. This led to inconsistencies in data analysis as different people used different processes to create reports. The IT team was also burdened with doing one-off pulls from the company’s databases. DWR needed a solution that was flexible enough to be used by all Area Managers, regardless of location, and easy enough that they could find answers on their own, despite their levels of technical ability.

Phoenix PMP gives 360 ̊ data insight
PHOENIX, a premier residential mortgage industry advisor, faced the challenge of collecting and analyzing extensive quantities of data for its over 250 customers. The information required for efficient, effective, and compliant mortgage production and servicing came from multiple sources due to the variety of systems employed by these firms. For instance, a Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSR) owner might use multiple third-party subservicers to manage its MSR portfolio, complicating the process of viewing performance data. It was increasingly difficult to sift through and focus on salient information on a consistent and timely basis to enable informed, smart decisions and to monitor outcomes. A lot of specialized effort was spent gathering the data, understanding what happened with a particular loan, realizing what it means, and then planning a course of action.

Alabama Farmers Cooperative, Inc. (AFC) is a regional federated supply and marketing agricultural cooperative that provides value to its members. The organization, with annual sales of more than $300 million and more than 2,300 employees, has grown through a series of joint ventures and acquisitions.

Federazione Lombarda di Banche di Credito Cooperativo raises productivity by 20 percent with QlikView
Federazione Lombarda di Banche di Credito Cooperativo (FLBCC) had to process and analyze the import of 1 million data lines and 24 million records each month from its member banks. The federation had built its previous data management solution in-house based on software from ACL Services. However, by 2011, FLBCC needed to replace this system with a more agile and scalable business discovery platform to improve productivity with easy-to-use self-service discovery capabilities. The in-house platform required a number of manual interventions and cumbersome repetitions of controls. Databases had to be downloaded and manually processed to obtain historical analysis on a monthly basis. The task was difficult, time-consuming, and error-prone.

Given the complexity of its operating systems, which were divided up among various technological applications, the main requirement was to find one system that would link together data from all departments. Data were extracted on a monthly basis from the accounting department, the various business divisions, and the general administrative division, thus leading to a need for management reports that were more agile and could be produced more frequently. Greater flexibility was also sought when it came to implementing tactical decisions, the effectiveness of which had to be tested without the complexity of modifying accounting structures.

QlikView Helps France Domaine Manage Government Property Policy
France Domaine, a department of the Directorate General of Public Finances in France, manages the government property policy.

Medical and pharmaceutical provider steps away from a traditional, complex BI approach in SAP
The B. Braun Group, a leading healthcare supplier, was facing issues with reporting and analyzing data due to the slow speed of their SAP warehouse. Not every team member had access to the SAP warehouse, leading to a loss of time for managers who were busy putting together reports in Excel, instead of actually spending time analyzing the data.

Reporting took too much time from both the business managers and the IT department. The reports were slow to access and not in all cases complete as the capabilities to combine external data were missing. This was affecting the competitive position of B.Braun in the Belgian market, since managers were not able to get immediate insight into their customers’ sales figures, the results of the different product ranges and the net profit margins.

QlikView turns Bouman GGZ into “clicking” addict
Bouman GGZ, the largest mental health organization in the Netherlands, was faced with a very compartmentalized information system at the end of 2005. The Planning & Control and Finance departments provided managers with information from their financial system, HR delivered data from their HRM system, and the Clinical group delivered data from their healthcare system. Each department did this in its own way, with its own tools: Excel, Cognos or Oracle. After a few days, the managers received a print-out or an Excel sheet with the information they had requested. This was not a model of efficiency and customer-friendliness. At the same time, a need was emerging to combine the data from the three systems. Personnel, financial and clinical data is often interconnected and that’s how the management wanted to see it. But it wasn’t possible: everything was compartmentalized.

Before the implementation of QlikView, CMC Call Center faced several challenges. They had issues with viewing reports from different angles and the need to monitor departments separately. They experienced performance-related problems in terms of report queries, access to information in different applications, and version changes.

The Cocoa Trees tastes sweet success in eliminating workfl ow ineffi ciencies and improving business decisions with QlikView
In 2004, The Cocoa Trees found that its accounting system, which was designed for generating static reports and financial statements, and based on batch processing, became inadequate for the rapidly growing operations. They were unable to generate reports on inventory levels on-demand or in real-time. Twice a month, the warehouse supervisor had to physically inspect stocks to prepare an inventory expiry date report to monitor the shelf-life of these perishable items. It was time-consuming as each report took two days to complete, with inevitable errors. Service levels were unsatisfactory as the order fulfillment cycle took too long. Salespeople could not propose or confirm orders with customers immediately against inventory levels. On top of that, because of the lack of clarity on inventory, some salespeople circumvented the system by physically pre-packing stocks at the warehouse to reserve the stocks, leading to many internal conflicts.

IBM Watson (IBM)
Watson is a question answering computer system capable of answering questions posed in natural language, developed in IBM's DeepQA project by a research team led by principal investigator David Ferrucci. Watson was named after IBM's first CEO and industrialist Thomas J. Watson. The computer system was specifically developed to answer questions on the quiz show Jeopardy!. In 2011, Watson competed on Jeopardy! against former winners Brad Rutter and Ken Jennings. Watson received the first place prize of $1 million. Watson had access to 200 million pages of structured and unstructured content consuming four terabytes of disk storage including the full text of Wikipedia, but was not connected to the Internet during the game. For each clue, Watson's three most probable responses were displayed on the television screen. Watson consistently outperformed its human opponents on the game's signaling device, but had trouble in a few categories, notably those having short clues containing only a few words. In February 2013, IBM announced that Watson software system's first commercial application would be for utilization management decisions in lung cancer treatment at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in conjunction with health insurance company WellPoint. IBM Watson's former business chief Manoj Saxena says that 90% of nurses in the field who use Watson now follow its guidance.
