Their role consists of subsequently implementing ETL processes to enrich their data warehouses and data marts. They are also an active agent, responsible for following the client throughout the evolution of their BI systems. However, their missions go much further as they are responsible for monitoring the company and providing good advice.

Before these tools, they obviously master SAS, which is the software through which they can sell their skills. However, to succeed in certain missions, they also need advanced knowledge in Hyperion, Business Objects, and many other tools.
