Performance Impact Analysis
“I was watching my dashboard, I don’t
know how this could have happened ! “
Business Intelligence Dashboards have their limitations. Events
happen rapidly and unexpectedly it is being able to anticipate events
or react and mitigate around an event that distinguishes top
performers. Arguably, even real time data is not fast enough….we
need more time to formulate our response to changing events. We
now need continuous and very accurate forecasts. We need the ability
to model the impact of forecasts and response scenarios . Today,
decision makers are overwhelmed with news and data, but navigating
between events and Business Intelligence is a challenge.

eiVia – meeting the forecasting & financial modeling
challenges in the Environmental Energy Management Market
•Within Environment and Energy Management Market - the biggest challenge is
forecasting long term energy consumption, cost and GHG emissions at both the
top line and granular levels.
•The data dimensions usually include time, energy type, source, use, and
location
•Organizations need to create a baseline forecast. If we do nothing, what does
the future look like?
•They then need to model and Optimize CAPEx spending on energy Cleantech
initiatives to take advantage of subsidies and rebates, lowering their operating
costs and financing capital expenditures.
•eiVia’s multidimensional and hierarchical forecasting and modeling provides
these capabilities in one toolset.
•eiVia can add competitive advantage to your Energy & Environmental
Management solution set.
Areas of Impact:
• manage an organizations sustainability footprint.
• Set and meet sustainability goals
• Decision support around CAPEx asset investment.
Type of impact:
• Statistically baseline measures of energy (usage & cost), carbon emissions,
water usage, and waste streams.
• Empirically forecast measures of usage in time series
• Model across measures for mitigation of market place changes.
• Model within a measure’s higherarchal structure for optimization.
• Model for optimization across measure and against goals by constraining any
measure at any level in the higherarchy.
• Write back optimization and mitigation models to the data warehouse for
reporting.

Consumption
Global monitoring of consumption implies complex hierarchical
Modeling at a global, regional, local, and device level. Eivia capability
will allow for modeling at any level and make changes at all related
points in the higherarchy: Top down, bottom up or inside and outside.
Indirect Changes
Eivia also models across measures as a change at any level not only impacts
within a measures higherarchy, but every function related to the impacted
measure.

• Deep roots in Business Intelligence & Data Warehousing as Eivia represents
the 2nd generation tool from the management and development team of
Information Advantage
• Over $20 million invested in development of technology, to-date.
• Large commercial users: Pepsi, Cargill, and Johnson & Johnson.
• Go to market strategy is to provide the Eivia engine to SAAS Providers to
deliver decision support for their user community.
About Eivia
DataWarehouse
Eivia functions much like an enterprise spreadsheet. However, unlike a
spreadsheet we move data out of cells and off of desktops
of users.
Next, we move formulas out of spreadsheet
cells and processing off of desktops as all
processing occurs on the server.
=IF(DATEDIF(Q$4,$B31,"m")<24,VLOOKUP(Q$4,'Admin%'!$EJ$5:$EO$16,5),IF(MOD(DATEDIF(Q$4,$B31,"m"),12)=0,VLOOKUP($B31,
'Admin %'!$EJ$5:$EO$16,5),Q30))
