Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, and employing over 14,000 people, the organization is a key player in the industry, continuously driving advancements in technology to improve everyday life.
The Challenge: Overcoming HR Data Integration and Analytics Limitations
Resideo initially relied on Oracle’s Fusion Analytics Warehouse (FAW) to manage HR analytics and reporting. However, they quickly encountered significant challenges, particularly with data integration and configuration. These issues led to incomplete solutions, with missing data and limited functionality, making it difficult for the HR team to generate the necessary insights for informed decision-making. Additionally, the lack of a native connection between Tableau—already in use as their preferred visualization tool—and Oracle HCM further complicated their reporting capabilities.
Faced with these obstacles, the organization realized the need for a solution that could seamlessly integrate Oracle HCM data with Tableau, enabling comprehensive and accurate HR data analysis without the excessive costs and maintenance complexities associated with FAW.
The Solution: BI Connector as the Ideal Integration Tool
After exploring their options, Resideo chose BI Connector for its ability to address their specific challenges effectively. The key reasons BI Connector stood out as the ideal solution include:
Seamless Integration: BI Connector provided a direct and effortless connection between Tableau and Oracle HCM, eliminating the need for complex configurations and ensuring a smooth data flow.
Cost-Effectiveness: Unlike FAW, BI Connector required minimal additional expenses, leveraging the existing Tableau infrastructure while significantly reducing overall costs.
Simplified Maintenance: BI Connector’s user-friendly interface and straightforward setup eliminated the need for manual replication of security schemes, reducing the complexity and time required for maintenance.Enhanced Data Access: The tool enabled quick and consolidated access to critical HR metrics such as global headcounts, turnover rates, and hiring trends, empowering the HR team to create detailed dashboards and reports efficiently.
The Outcome: Improved HR Analytics and Decision-Making
By implementing BI Connector, successfully overcame the limitations of FAW and enhanced its HR data integration and analytics capabilities.
The seamless connection between Oracle HCM and Tableau allowed the organization to deliver timely, accurate insights to HR business partners, managers, directors, and executives. This improvement in data access and reporting not only facilitated better decision-making but also contributed to significant cost savings by transitioning from FAW to a more efficient and maintainable solution.
