About VQS
 The business environment today demands that your enterprise perform efficiently and effectively. To do that, you must have a balanced approach to saving time, controlling costs and maintaining quality. VQS provides the enterprise performance management platform that will help you accomplish these vital, strategic goals.
The Objective
Organizing and implementing large-scale telecommunications systems is a program
management challenge of the highest order. The stakes are high for the
contractor, the client and the community at large. VQS, a program management
services consulting firm, is dedicated to delivering an automated program
management solution capable of handling the most complex and data-intensive
projects in the world.
"We work very closely with multinational clients like MACTEC and Bechtel to organize program information around the target goal for the project," said VQS Partner, John Patton. "Even the most complex projects can be viewed simply if you set up the Target Goal, define what is to be measured and make all program information, tasks and files accessible through a central web based system. Our VisionEPM technology empowers managers to turn ‘Data Into Action’. LogiXML’s Report Plus is a key component that helps us achieve that goal."
The Solution
The VQS VisonEPM system is at its core concerned with project-focused data organization, relentless data collection of information created by the project and effective data usage by the managers responsible for the project. LogiXML’s Report Plus is a key element of the data usage component of their system.
"When you have projects totaling of about $7 billion in work currently under management -- projects that call for a telecom rollout for an entire developing country or a major renovation of a telecom system of a state in the US -- you need to know exactly what is in the system and provide managers with the means to access it effectively" adds Patton.
The Results
"LogiXML offered us a Web-based reporting solution that was both economically compelling when compared to the Crystal Reports system we were using, but also technically more consistent with our own architecture. One important technical detail is visibility into where exactly the reporting SQL commands are executing. The Crystal application was making execution decisions based on the reporting products needs – not our needs.
"Using LogiXML Report Plus we always know where the SQL is executing and can always verify that the reporting information generated is based on the actual data we have worked so deliberately to organize and collect. We have a lot riding on our programs and we are happy to have LogiXML as a trusted partner in this enterprise," he concluded.
