Yorkshire Building Society Group selects QlikTech for high volume reporting   19th February 2007 Yorkshire Building Society Group (YBS) has implemented QlikView, QlikTech's business intelligence tool to conduct analysis and issue share plan reports for the half a million accounts managed on behalf of many of the UK 's leading companies. Due to the nature of the work carried out by Yorkshire Building Society and the significant volumes of data it handles, the organisation needed a BI solution that would integrate seamlessly with its current systems, enabling it to operate smoothly without any disruptions.  QlikView was selected after an evaluation of five of the leading BI vendors based on the fact that it was the fastest to implement and easiest to use, needing little preparation or training. “We now have access to information that was previously unattainable with our old management information system,” commented Dean Smith, Share Plan Project Manager at the Yorkshire Building Society.  “QlikView has provided us with valuable insight and the ability to identify new trends.  At first we were sceptical as to whether QlikTech could deliver on all that it promised because of the amount of data we handle, but it has met and exceeded our expectations.  QlikView is constantly surprising me; we are always find new uses for it.” Andy Honess, UK MD for QlikTech commented; “Previously only the IT department could build and amend the reports, which was a drain on resources.  For a financial institution such as YBS it is important that there is as little disruption as possible.  By building QlikView into YBS as a business tool rather than an IT tool, the company was able see immediate benefits from the application, as well as maintaining its focus on its business and customer needs.” Concludes Dean; “QlikView has made a big difference to the way our staff work.  For example the sales team were always reactive with ad hoc reporting requests but with QlikView the data is readily available. We can run up to 800 reports in a matter of seconds.”
