Analytics, business intelligence and sustainability in the Service ERP.

Turn your business data into meaningful insights with connected analytics, reporting and business intelligence. Monitor service performance, contract profitability, equipment usage and sustainability information from one system, helping your teams understand what’s happening across the business and make better decisions based on accurate, relevant information.

Why this domain exists

Understanding how your business is performing requires more than looking at sales figures or financial reports. You also need visibility into service costs, technician productivity, equipment performance and the profitability of individual customer contracts.

When this information is spread across different systems, getting a complete picture can be difficult. Your team may spend hours exporting spreadsheets, combining reports and checking figures before they can identify where improvements are needed.

By the time the information is available, the opportunity to address an issue may already have passed.

Nucleus connects analytics and business intelligence to the information generated throughout your operations. From service jobs and equipment records to customer contracts, billing and purchasing, your teams can work with data that reflects what’s happening across the business.

It also brings sustainability information into your reporting, helping you monitor factors such as paper consumption, energy usage and carbon emissions alongside operational performance.

With connected reporting, you can identify trends, understand costs and make informed decisions without relying on separate systems to piece together the information.

A week in the life of the numbers

Monday: Reviewing service performance

Your team starts the week by reviewing service level performance and equipment activity. Dashboards help highlight outstanding service issues and devices that may need attention, allowing your team to identify priorities.

Mid-week: Monitoring service costs

As technicians complete jobs and parts are used, service activity contributes to your operational reporting. Your team can review how labour and material costs are affecting contract and service profitability.

Invoice run: Comparing revenue and costs

Customer invoices are generated, and billing information becomes available alongside the costs associated with delivering service. Your finance team can review revenue and expenses to better understand margins.

Friday: Reviewing profitability

At the end of the week, management reviews performance across customer contracts, equipment and technicians. Connected reporting helps identify profitable activities, areas where costs are increasing and opportunities to improve efficiency.

What has to be true on the same record

Your customer contracts, equipment records, meter readings, service jobs, technician time, inventory costs, invoices and financial information all need to be connected.

With Nucleus, analytics draws on information recorded throughout your business, helping your teams understand how operational activity affects financial performance.

Rather than relying on disconnected spreadsheets and separate reports, you can use connected business information to monitor performance, investigate costs and make decisions based on a more complete picture of your operations.
