OPERA BI OPERA BUSINESS With Enterprise and Standard Editions INTELLIGENCE SUITE
OPERA Business Intelligence Deployment Benefits Reduced Hardware Complexity OBI is built entirely on the same platform as the other highly successful OPERA applications. By reusing the same architecture and data model, there is no need for separate hardware systems to store the components and data for your BI needs. Reduced Deployment Time Most other BI deployments take months, if not years. OBI can be deployed in weeks. Every OPERA application has built-in the necessary key components to transform your system into a successful BI solution. Reduced Implementation Cost License fees, additional hardware, training, implementation, and consulting are just some of the costs an organization must incur when deploying a BI solution. OBI significantly reduces these costs since in many instances no new hardware is required. The familiar OPERA data model forms the bases of the OBI Data Marts, so no time is wasted in putting BI to work in your enterprise. 0%-33% Comparison Per Year 33%-66% 66%-100% 50% 50% 50% 25% 25% 25% 0% 100% 0% 100% 0% 100% 2005 2006 2007 Guest Origin States Greater Than 500,000 10.16% California 42.14% Texas 18.58% Florida 9.04% Georgia 9.18% Oklahoma 10.89% Hawaii BI Enterprise Interactive Dashboards provide full ad-hoc query analysis over the web

OPERA Business Intelligence and Data OPERA BI Today s decision makers in hospitality face a growing challenge to clean and process the large volumes of data that feature-rich applications such as OPERA can produce. Management requires a powerful and comprehensive Business Intelligence process that will transform application data into an environment which provides the capability of answering relevant questions and identifying important trends that will lead to better business decisions. MICROS Systems, Inc. is pleased to announce OPERA Business Intelligence Suite that includes Enterprise (OBIE) and Standard (OBIS) editions. The Enterprise edition provides aggregate analysis and reporting across the organization using data collected from multiple OPERA applications and properties. The Standard edition is targeted to bring the same reporting and analysis capabilities to the single property environment, but without the complexities of an enterprise solution. Powered by Oracle, a leader in business analytics software, OBI Suite is easily deployed at any size organization, from a single property to a multi-branded chain. OBI Suite Data Marts and BI tools provide powerful new capabilities to the consumers of OPERA Data including sophisticated reporting and trend analysis to identify key customers and key trends. For example: Which hotels do our top 100 companies and guests visit the most? How much revenue could be impacted by a natural disaster, such as a hurricane? What is the non-room revenue generated by our last marketing promotion? Data Collection The OBI cycle starts with a detailed and comprehensive data acquisition at the point of origin. Whether the source system is PMS, S&C, or ORS, OBI guarantees the data collected will satisfy the most demanding reports. Data Transmission (OBIE only) If your data needs to be transmitted to an OPERA Central System for consolidated enterprise reporting, OBI provides seamless transmission between the source and the receiving system. Data Standardization (OBIE only) Multiple sources of data tend to create a challenge for aggregating data in a centralized environment. OBI has builtin conversion and validation components to guarantee your data will be clean by the time it is used for reporting. Data Integration (OBIE only) Some clients need to incorporate data across external systems like Payroll and Financials. The OBI data model allows you to integrate data from external systems.
