XempleX
Business Intelligence Modelling Software
XempleX is a software tool that provides a visual environment for business and process
modelling. Existing specialist business intelligence products are expensive and highly
structured. Changes to the structure or inclusion of new
modelling constraints require costly and time consuming programmer input. In contrast XempleX
provides the flexibility and ease of use normally associated with
spreadsheets combined with the comprehensive data analysis capabilities of specialist
modelling tools.
The power to develop new models is in the hands of the subject expert. This enables corporations to
capture intellectual capital that is normally lost when spreadsheets are developed by expert users.
XempleX Models are Maintainable:
- Underlying assumptions can be easily
changed by adding a new condition and
applying it to the model.
XempleX Models are Auditable:
- Visual environment helps to trace steps
involved in process.
- Relationships between values on a model
are clearly highlighted making it easier to
follow the logic of the model.
XempleX Models are Reusable:
- XempleX separates the process logic from
the data, so models can easily be reused
with different data sets and shared between
users.
Complex calculations are visually mapped out and then "rolled up" into a component. These components can be applied to new models and shared between users. For, example a single component to calculate equipment availability can be re-used in every model that requires an availability calculation.
XempleX Enterprise Broker
The XempleX Enterprise Broker contains a repository for storing details of models which have been published by users around the network. Workflow associated with the certification and sign off of models can be incorporated, similar to the concept used in many document control systems.
Security levels can also be assigned to models to determine who has rights to view the model details, who can modify it and who can use it. Security is based on the establishment of workgroups with associated security profiles.
Importantly the broker also handles version control. If a change is made to a component users will be alerted to this and given the option to update their model to incorporate the changed component or to remain with the previous version. This mechanism will help to ensure that models are using the most current version of components and calculations.
The XempleX Enterprise Broker is designed to give corporations the ability to control and manage intellectual capital around their organization, while still give the end users enough flexibility to develop the models they need for decision support.
