Realizing Value Quickly from a Newly Installed SAS EBI Platform- Brian
Varney, Comsys
Getting a new SAS Enterprise Business Intelligence (EBI) Platform up and
running is an exciting time for a company. The promises heard during the
sales cycle and project demonstrations need to become actionable processes
by the administrators, power users and information consumers once the
installation is complete. The reality is that this can only happen with
careful planning and preparation before, during and after the SAS platform
installation process.
This paper will address how to plan and prepare for each phase of a SAS EBI
implementation, such that, when the installation and configuration are
complete; the platform can be leveraged in an organized manner. We assume
that SAS software has already been chosen as the BI platform of choice and
the hardware and operating systems have been decided upon.
Career Coaching: Surviving in a Troubled Economy- Nick Synko, Synko
Associates
Nick’s talk will cover outplacement services, career transition coaching,
and coaching in general.
