Boomerang - a New Approach to Business Intelligence
Businesses large and small have been investing in IT middleware and integration solutions for nearly 20 years. The IT stack that has accumulated is often bloated and brittle; layers upon layers of technologies that, while well-intentioned, have paralyzed the business and left it feeling like a mammoth at the La Brea Tar Pits.
A by-product of this bloated stack of MoM, EAI, J2EE, Corba, XML, SOA, and .Net (just to name a few) is that often times the business side of a company loses its ability to change and adapt quickly to new business prospects. Why? The applications and technology necessary for the business aren't agile enough to support the business needs of new applications, new visualizations into customer data, etc. We've seen a recurring pattern amongst our customers: the business sees potential in a new area and requests IT projects to support this new venture, IT responds with a multi-million dollar request and a 6- to 12-month project schedule. With all the advances in technology and the countless number of intelligent software engineers employed by these IT departments, shouldn't projects cost less and take a smaller amount of time?
Boomerang is a new approach to building Business Intelligence applications. The way we build applications is different: less bloat, less complexity, more value. The timeframe and costs associated with our projects are different as well; projects usually span between 1 and 3 months and the costs pale in comparison to the high software licensing costs of current BI and middleware vendor packages.
We aggressively simplify the technical and management aspects to our customers' projects and deliver high-quality, value-added applications.
