• To answer a set of questions, the program


analyzes and connects as much as 200 terabytes
of data (equal to the amount of information
contained in 200,000 copies of Encyclopedia
Britannica), allowing for unprecedented
granularity and customization.

• The way the data is presented uncovers insights,


trends, and opportunities for the business leaders
and prompts them to ask different and very
focused business questions. If one question elicits
a follow-up question, if can be addressed with
data on-the-spot.

• The visualization helps people to “see” the data


in ways they would not have been able to with
just numbers and spreadsheets. It challenges
assumptions while simultaneously presenting the
data in different ways, revealing potential solutions
that previously may have not been apparent.

• GBS’s strategic partnership model gave us access


to the latest technology-enabled capabilities. The
Business Sphere was developed in partnership with
BOI, Cisco, HP, SAP, Nielsen and TIBCO Spotfire.
