Stonebridge Offers Cognos ReportNet™ Consulting Services

“Catalyst” Program Takes Companies From Product Evaluation Through Implementation

DALLAS, October 12, 2004 – Stonebridge Technologies, a leading business consulting and technology services firm, recently launched Cognos ReportNet™ Catalyst, a defined program of professional services designed to help organizations evaluate and integrate ReportNet into their business intelligence environment for maximum benefit.

Cognos ReportNet is a “game changer” that fundamentally transforms enterprise business reporting, according to Stonebridge Chief Solutions Architect Travis Osborne. “As with every game-changing innovation, ReportNet challenges the status quo – including all aspects of your existing information management environment,” Osborne said.

Stonebridge, a Cognos Premier Solution Provider specializing in business intelligence solutions architecture, designed the ReportNet Catalyst program to help organizations navigate through a wide range of strategic, economic and functional issues, from “Is ReportNet right for my company’s needs?” to “What ReportNet features can be exploited to make the experience of my information consumers more productive?”

Stonebridge’s Cognos ReportNet Catalyst program provides organizations with four distinct service levels:

• ReportNet Overview: Includes an onsite workshop on the basics of product including architecture, design process, and report authoring functionality.
• ReportNet Proof of Concept: Includes development of a working example of ReportNet using the client’s proprietary data, simplified metadata layer, sample reports and a documented implementation road map.
• ReportNet Spark Implementation: Includes a “quick start” rollout to a departmental group, including workshops on ReportNet Overview, Design and Administration and Report Authoring, as well as metadata layer, sample reports, and a documented implementation road map.
• ReportNet Turnkey Implementation: Includes server/software technology, architectural guidance, and education at a discounted price, including re-configured ReportNet server with reference architecture implementation, “starter” product licenses, and workshops on ReportNet Overview, Design and Administration and Report Authoring, as well as metadata layer, sample reports, and a documented implementation road map.
