Database Services
The Official Intelligence database team can support you in the following areas:
Data Integration
Along with application integration, some organisations may wish to integrate more than one data source into business reports. Our experienced business intelligence consultants can assist and support you in the integration of your in-house database requirements.
Database Reports
Official Intelligence works with you to develop and deploy your analytical and reporting views using your existing data warehouse and data models. We specialise in working with various reporting products including Microsoft Report Builder, Crystal Reports and Jasper Reports.
Reports are developed on your systems and distributed internally on a system of your choice or developed in-house by Official Intelligence on receipt of your data for distribution.

Design and create relational databases from small, stand-alone databases to large, multi-site, multi-user RDBMS systems with millions of records and hundreds of users.
