A large proportion of vital company information is compiled and administrated today in various IT systems. Together, this data forms the basis for important business decisions and strategies. However, any merging of this data, figures and information is associated with much time and cost expenditure and is subject to a high error quota. In addition, the various knowledge and data sources require high maintenance.
