Varigence, Inc.

In today's economy, most clients have fixed budgetary constraints for their BI initiatives. When considering competitive proposals, the consulting firm that can credibly deliver the most compelling set of capabilities within the budget wins the contract.

Biml enables you to be more productive, providing increased capabilities that help you close more deals. Additionally, on-time and on-budget delivery will drive lucrative follow-up business, as well as recommendations to new customers. The result:

Increased hourly productivity + an improved close rate = higher profits and more consistent cash flow.

Senior consultants and architects are essential to the success of large projects. They design flexible architectures, specify useful patterns and frameworks, troubleshoot and fix critical customer problems, and lead junior consultants to successfully deliver solutions. But they're also expensive, driving high downtime costs and higher bill rates.

With Biml, a senior resource can scale across larger teams of junior consultants - while still achieving the same level of quality. Biml and Mist enable you to:

• Specify frameworks once and let our tools apply them automatically to others' business logic.
• Review changes by others, specify modifications, and track more larger projects in less time.
• Spend more time on customer value through people and process, rather than wrestling with tools.

A core element of your strategic advantage is the experience you have gained building great solutions for your customers. Using Varigence tools, the framework and patterns that you've developed over time can be encoded as a collection of reusable patterns that can be applied across many projects. Mist and Biml provide a straightforward mechanism for encoding these patterns so that they're automatically applied to your solutions without requiring individual developers to manually implement them.

Mist and Biml enable value-add features such as auditing/logging, unit testing, and more to be implemented once and reused across all projects. Consulting companies have the option of enabling these features with a simple project configuration change. Since the incremental cost of delivering these features is nearly zero, this affords you significant flexibility in pricing to maximize adoption and revenues.

Biml and Mist accelerate your development time, without requiring any runtime. The output is a polished Microsoft SQL Server Business Intelligence solution, that runs on a standard SQL Server license. Your customer gets the confidence in knowing that the platform is built and supported by one of the largest software and BI companies in the world, while you get the benefit of delivering the solution with a cutting edge toolset. The best of both worlds.
