Acqnowledge©
Acquisition Business Intelligence for SPS Organizations

Unlock the Potential of Your SPS Enterprise Data

For DoD Standard Procurement System (SPS) sites running the Procurement Desktop – Defense (PD²) software, Suntiva offers a unique reporting and business intelligence tool that can extract data from the SPS database, transform that data into a format more meaningful for reporting, and provide web-based access to that data through a wide range of reporting options.  The result is a reporting tool that can provide meaningful management information from SPS data – information that is unavailable through the conventional use of SQL or through the built-in reports available in SPS today.  Acqnowledge© is unique in its ability to add value by creating data relationships and reporting possibilities that are impossible through PD² itself.

In addition, the Acqnowledge© is able to merge data from multiple SPS databases, allowing the creation of consolidated reports and analysis across SPS sites or entire commands. 

Acqnowledge© is modular and flexible with several options for deployment, and includes two primary components:

• The Data Component.  A full featured Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) tool which can transform data from one or more PD² databases into a single data store that is optimized for analytics and reporting;
• The Reporting Component.  A broad array of reporting tools for access to this data, to reflect the diverse needs of the DoD community.  This includes 40 pre-defined contract management reports (many of which are impossible to extract from PD²), and a web based Relational On-Line Analytical Processing (ROLAP) solution that can be used to present the data in a dashboard-style, configurable format.  Full drill-down capability is provided to allow the user to analyze the data “underneath” the dashboard.
