One of the greatest challenges for large companies and government organisations managing large, complex capital projects is the number of stakeholders involved. Recognising this, Risk Decisions sought to make its Predict! software communicate much more visually and intuitively than others in the market to reduce ambiguity and help guide optimal decision-making. Risk Decisions chose to integrate Pentaho Business Analytics for its reporting and data visualisation capabilities, including geo-mapping, its ad-hoc reporting capabilities and the fact that it was based on open standards and therefore easy to integrate into Predict!.

Increasing competitive advantage for Predict!

According to Val Jonas, CEO Risk Decisions, "Integrating Pentaho into Predict! has given us a competitive edge. Its ease of integration has meant we've been able to focus developer time on the innovative risk management capabilities Predict! is famous for."

Davy Nys, VP EMEA & APAC Pentaho commented, "One of our strongest growth areas is with companies like Risk Decisions who are seeking to gain competitive advantage by embedding advanced analytics and data visualisations into their existing software. Although Predict! is already an established market leader, it saw a new opportunity to stretch its lead by offering its customers geo-mapping and ad-hoc reporting."
