eBuilder Delivers Supply Chain Visibility by Embedding Jaspersoft Business Intelligence

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Jaspersoft, maker of the world's most widely used business intelligence (BI) software, today announced eBuilder has delivered supply chain visibility to its customers and lowered costs by implementing the Jaspersoft BI Suite. This leading global provider of cloud processes, headquartered in Sweden, integrates powerful Jaspersoft BI tools that provide visually impactful, easy-to-use, strategic measurement and monitoring capabilities across any business's entire network of collaborating parties.

eBuilder provides an end-to-end suite of cloud management processes that integrate a worldwide network of cooperating supply-chain process participants. The company needed a solution that would help eBuilder's clients measure, focus, and optimize the flow of outbound product shipments across a worldwide distribution network, that would be visually impactful and from a central location. The solution also needed to provide self-service access to standardized supply-chain management reports, and to automated report polling for selected recipients. Strategically, the BI solution would enable clients to, for example, benchmark performance of all parties in a multi-enterprise supply chain.

With Jaspersoft's unique web-based architecture and flexible functionality, eBuilder seamlessly integrated the Jaspersoft BI Suite into eBuilder's Order Fulfillment and After Sales Cloud Process solutions. Jaspersoft's single-view performance dashboard provides unprecedented supply chain visibility and control, allowing eBuilder to place greater focus on managing its supply chain performance and proactively identifying bottlenecks in their international network before they impact the customer and the bottom line.

Now with the integration of Jaspersoft Business Intelligence Suite and eBuilder's Supply Chain Product suite, eBuilder's clients can:

• Boost efficiency and reduce costs through fact-based supply chain measurement
• Rapidly access tactical and strategic volumes and KPI (Key Performance Indicators) across all stakeholders
• Assimilate large amounts of formerly scattered information to standardized reports and flexible data extracts
• Tailor BI functionality to various roles: strategic, tactical, and operational so client's users can gain actionable insights and then respond
• Through embedded technology, make more informed decisions, harnessing the power of Jaspersoft's easy-to-use reports and visualization dashboards.

"We evaluated leading open source BI platforms and chose Jaspersoft for its ease of integration, and because it could live up to the robust reporting requirements anticipated for our clients," said Roger Wallentin, Supply Chain Product Manager, eBuilder. "Our IT team found the Jaspersoft technology to be stable, high-performing and robust, delivering powerful reports to our clients enabling them to make critical business decisions."
