The journey toward Siebel Analytics started with the move to
eBusiness and several challenges around reporting
Multiple Siebel instances
– Multiple, independent shadow reporting approaches
– No integrated reporting solution within our Siebel
environment
Limits to Enterprise Information Warehouse (EIW)
– Contains subset of Siebel data; Not an operational
management data source
– Need for non-Siebel data
– Ongoing operational challenges with Siebel data
extracts, EIW conversions and feeds
Ad hoc reporting is difficult and requires DBA-type
skills to use multiple tools
– Actuate, Brio
– Shadow Database

Much more than just reporting; a sense and respond approach
drives actions to individuals and delivers daily value to sales
reps, providing insight linked to needed actions

All parties
agreed that a
production
pilot was the
next step
Our investigation into Siebel Analytics occurred in three phases

real-life problems

Scalability
Assessment
High-level systems
and expertise sizing
Interview other SA
customers
Challenges Potential benefits
Information for decision-making managed
manually
Consistent view of business across roles
enables timely, personalized actions
Redundant activities take time away from
customers and revenue generation
Seamless integration into Siebel workspace
speeds access to information
Inaccurate data views prevent early warning
and rapid resolution of issues
Rapid response through early detection;
dashboard changes independent of Siebel
releases
Duplicate investments in multiple reporting
approaches
More than reporting; turns data into
actionable insight; enables cross-sell and
up-sell … and so much more

Just a fraction of the total product suite is included in the scope
of the evaluation pilot
Goal: Demonstrate value of the program, development, maintenance, performance, and total
cost of ownership (TCO)
Participants: EMEA field sellers with all business units providing input and most
participating. Roles include sellers and managers, plus sales operations, report writers, and
support personnel.

The production pilot is a practical application of the program
with end users on a production system over an evaluation
period of several weeks
This pilot project must demonstrate that
Siebel Analytics:
– Can easily replace existing reporting
mechanisms
– Is a low-cost alternative to existing reporting
mechanisms
– Allows flexible end-user control
– Can offload current reporting and query
workloads that tax the production system
– Enhances user productivity
– Scales to the same degree as the Siebel
implementation in IBM
– Can adopt IBM's Siebel security
implementation easily
This pilot is testing the following "to-be
process" aspects:
– Use a sense and respond approach to
inspect various pieces of data that have
been input into the Siebel system in IBM
– Notify the user and/or manager of data
quality exceptions and out-of-bounds
conditions, prompting their action
– Deliver a base set of business metrics that
are useful to sales reps and managers, and
that provide insight into their business

The pilot was designed to span 12 weeks of development and 8 weeks
of production, with two user feedback surveys

User support during production is critical
Web site for bulletin board posting and emails; eliminates need for push emails
Unique pilot ID for push emails
Q&A sessions are opportunities to ask experts questions and encourage peer interaction
One-on-one calls to significant % of participants to provide targeted support

We’ve learned a lot and overcome several challenges during this
investigation
Key lessons:
– Use best practice, pre-configured
dashboards with limited customization
– Use Siebel OLTP data only
– Use discovery phase to validate specific
users for deployment and best dashboards
for them
– Take small steps in the deploy; a few seats
at a time, validate, repeat
– Close IBM and Siebel teaming helps ensure
success
Key challenges:
– Remote locations of development and user
teams (Atlanta and EMEA, respectively)
– Expansion of pilot beyond original team
scope
– EMEA data privacy
– Hardware availability
– Performance tuning
