ClearViewRM

ClearView Requirements Manager (ClearViewRM^TM) captures Data Warehouse and Business Intelligence requirements by utilising a proven, rigorous approach, which gets results quickly.

Rather than start with a blank piece of paper, ClearViewRM^TM uses a knowledge base of widely-used KPIs, measures, dimensions, dimensional attributes and hierarchies. Users then choose from the knowledge base, using the wizard-driven interface. There is also the ability to add user-defined measures, dimensions and attributes as required.

The output from Requirements Manager is a high-quality requirements specification in Microsoft Word format.

ClearViewRM^TM can deliver the following benefits across the whole lifecycle of any of the above types of Data Delivery projects:

• Productivity savings in the requirements gathering activity
• Productivity savings from reduced re-work in the development phase
• Reduced risk in what is traditionally considered a high risk project area
• Increased sponsor and end-user satisfaction due to the ability to easily confirm requirements prior to the commencing development

Savings in project effort of up to 60% have been achieved during the current Beta trial.
