If you are managing a business you need to be able to have feedback measures of the performance of your business, otherwise you are "flying blind". That would be like driving a car without a speedometer or fuel gauge!
Our Business Intelligence partner BizCubed Pty. Ltd. is Australia's premiere Certified Partner for Pentaho, the Commercial Open Source Business Intelligence suite. Pentaho offers the complete BI solution of Reporting, Analysis, Dashboards, Data Mining and Data Integration across your entire enterprise.
Pentaho allows you to unlock the data in your disparate systems to improve your business by creating reports, graphs, charts and dashboards and deploy them to the web without a huge investment in platforms and data management.
Bizcubed provides the Australian marketplace with integration, deployment, consulting and ongoing support for the Pentaho platform and is the only company with the people, the skills and the experience necessary to deliver complete customer requirements with a value proposition that is unprecedented in the BI market space in this country. Better than that, they have the track record to prove it!
Bizcubed offers hosted "jumpstart" products which allow them to engage with your organisation quickly and inexpensively. This approach vastly lowers the risk associated with ICT projects generally, let alone a corporate BI implementation, by showing you what you will get before committing vast resources to the project.
Using the world's leading open source Bi platform you avoid hefty software licencing costs as well as ongoing licence management costs to shuffle proprietary licences between machines as your people and your business needs change. All this without the vendor lock-in and lack of flexibility that proprietary tools impose upon you.
Despite what anybody else tells you, we're here to tell you that Bizcubed has an offer which cannot be matched by commercial BI vendors. Bizcubed charges a small fee to set up a customised jumpstart service for you whilst other commercial licence BI vendors might give you a demo for free. Why is that?
The reason is commercial vendors can afford to do it for free up front. By the time their customers get to the end of the project they will have paid vastly more money for their BI implementation by way of licencing and consulting that their BI vendor can afford to do lots of things for free. But that is yesterday's business model. Bizcubed brings you the ICT business model of the future and you can have it today. It's a better business model with more integrity because it is an open model based upon open standards software with the end result being more customer value and more customer control. It is this integrity that makes us proud to call them our partner.

Our Science and Engineering Partner, Synertec, provides solutions for all manufacturing industries, specialising in the Life Sciences, Petrochemical and Mining. With offices in Melbourne, Sydney and Singapore, Synertec has a strong and proven team which offers services in the following technical disciplines:
- Automation and Electrical Engineering
- Construction and Project Management
- Validation and Compliance
- Process, Mechanical and HVAC Engineering
Synertec can provide innovative engineering solutions from complete facility designs to systems upgrades and expansions. Their professional team can deliver turn-key solutions or support a customer's own project team with specialty resources when required.
Cytech brings over 25 years of ICT, business analysis, SAP implementation and project management experience. With a proven track record of identifying, documenting and delivering customer requirements, Cytech delivers enterprise scale solutions which satisfy the most exacting customers.
They have worked for a wide range of customers around Australia, including Visy, ALMC, BP, Cadbury Schweppes, Caltex, Nestle and Australia Post.

Our ERP partner, ADAXA, is a management and information technology services provider focusing on the implementation of Adempiere, an open source ERP solution. With many years of successful implementations behind them, the team at ADAXA knows what it takes to make enterprise wide systems integration an ongoing success in their clients' businesses.
Their project methodology is purposefully designed to help clients define, develop and refine their requirements as the project progresses. This ensures better buy-in from their clients' personnel and a final solution that meets the needs of the organisation. Too many times projects are delivered to an up front set of "static" requirements which do not fully represent the clients' changing needs. ADAXA realises that customer requirements develop as their understanding of what is available to them grows as the project progresses.
ADAXA is concerned not only with delivering on time and on budget, but most importantly with providing their clients with a flexible and customisable ERP platform which reduces their total cost of ownership whilst avoiding costly vendor lock-in associated with proprietary software solutions.
Whilst they can deploy ERP solutions for any scale of business, the accessibility of open source combined with ADAXA's expertise puts big business ERP functionality within affordable reach of small to medium enterprises.
We are currently looking for an open source SugarCRM integration partner. Please contact us if you have a proven track record.
