06 — Decide
Business Intelligence & Analytics Consulting
Turn trusted organisational data into dashboards, reporting, and analytical products designed around real operational and strategic decisions.
Fafanua turns trusted organisational data into reporting and analytical products designed around the decisions people actually make, from executive and board reporting to the operational views teams use every day. We start from the questions and KPIs that matter to your organisation, then build dashboards, scorecards and analysis on modelled, tested data, so the numbers hold up when they are challenged. We work with organisations in Uganda and East Africa on the BI tools they already use, or on a platform chosen with them.
Problems this service solves
- Management reports take days of manual work to produce each month.
- Dashboards exist but go unused, because they do not answer the questions leaders ask.
- KPIs are defined differently from one report to the next.
- Regulatory and stakeholder reports are rebuilt from scratch every period.
- Analysts spend more time preparing data than analysing it.
