Abstract/Summary

Decisions drive organizations. In manufacturing operation, the organization needs an accurate picture of business performance in many areas to support the decision making process whether for strategic or tactical. Business Intelligence (BI) is a flexible resource to support the decision making process that can work at various organization levels through information delivery. It does not only reflect the organizations performance but it also uncover some facts hidden in the manufacturing data. It provides a high-value, accurate, timely and actionable business insights. However, there is a challenge of transforming the manufacturing data into coherent information that can be used as the basis of strategic improvements and operational decisions to help achieve the operational goals.

The focus of this paper is the business intelligence implementation of Electronics Manufacturing Company. It leverages on the opportunity to transform the data which resides in disparate systems and different data formats by providing reports as basis of decision and improvements in meeting the operational key performance indicators (KPIs) to sustain its mission in the industry. The center of this project is to build a reporting infrastructure with an early visibility of reports in order to address current business challenges. An online Analytical Processing (OLAP) tool was used to provide flexibility in discovering patterns, trends and information.
