SAP Analytics Cloud
SAP S/4 HANA (embedded analytics)

Having invested in a modern data platform, the BMT team took up the challenge to increase the accessibility & understanding of available reports:
Giving every employee an overview of the reports & terminology relevant to them, based on their business division & role
Harmonizing definitions of master data and transactional data elements, making them available to all reports consumers throughout the group
Enabling management to make informed decisions based on clearly defined KPI dashboards
Rolling out dScribe
dScribe was rolled out as a single access point for all reports available in BMT, across the different divisions. A glossary with KPIs and data definitions (~300) was also established, with selected content shared across the group and other content governed locally per division.
BMT Group's very own Lieven & Tom explain:
"To address the data challenge, we partnered up with dScribe. The data catalog application makes it feasible for users, in a very user friendly way, to find and interpret reports and KPIs. Our users can access all relevant documentation right within SAC through the dScribe plug-in."
