METHUEN,
Mass. February 8, 2000 Genesys, the Methuen, Mass.-based provider of software and outsourcing
for human resource (HR) management, payroll, and benefits, announced
today that it will leverage enterprise business intelligence solutions
from Cognos® (Nasdaq:COGN; TSE:CSN) to enable its customers to maximize
the strategic use of their existing HR systems and to streamline analysis
and reporting. Genesys will resell Cognos products as a Certified Solution
Provider.
"Cognos
is the established leader in the business intelligence for e-business
marketplace, with thousands of successful deployments worldwide, including
many in HR applications," said Earle Phillips, Genesys director, business
development. "Genesys customers possess a wealth of HR information,
and products such as PowerPlay® and Impromptu® will enable them
to transform it into business intelligence they can use to improve company
performance."
With
the Cognos products, Genesys customers will define the measurements
they want to analyze, then create a multidimensional database based
on those measurements. The result is a data mart they can interrogate
at will, performing "what if" modeling and drilling down for details
as desired.
"Thousands
of organizations rely on Genesys to manage their human resources,"
said Ted Jandl, Cognos area vice president, North American partner channel

so we can help them maximize the strategic use of the business intelligence
they already possess, but may not be able to access effectively."

reporting, ad hoc query, and visualization products are available over
the Web. Cognos channel programs enable software providers to leverage
the products to expedite e-business initiatives. For more information
