An insurance company wants to implement a business intelligence solution to consolidate data from various different internal system to provide a better understanding of their customer base.
A business analysis (BA) is engaged to put together a tender (bid) to be sent to various business intelligence providers and implementation partners. Among other information the business analysis requests the following:
* Licensing costs for year 0 based on needing 1 Central processing Unit (CPU) license
* Licensing costs for specific user types such as Report Creators Online Analytical Process (OLAO) user and Power users
* Predicted licensing costs for renewing in Years 1 and 2
* Full implementation costs
After reviewing the received vendor responses the project team shortlists the candidates to 3 and the BA structures the received information as follows:
The Insurance company has a maximum bucket of $310,000 for the entire to implementation and operation over the first three years. Which vendor or vendors meet that criterion?
Based on the table in the image, the total cost for each company over the three years can be calculated by adding the Year 0 license costs, Years 1 and 2 total license costs, and implementation costs. For Company A, the total cost is $323,458 (Year 0) + $270,092 (Years 1 and 2) + $28,500 (Phase Ia) + $55,000 (Phase Ib) + $121,500 (Phase 2) = $798,550. For Company B, it's $373,555 (Year 0) + $202,056 (Years 1 and 2) + ($1.500150 days of implementation)= $578611 which is less than the insurance company's maximum budget of $310000. For Company C it's = ($400244+$214096+($31.50159))= $695439 which exceeds the budget.Reference: The answer is derived from a direct calculation based on the provided information in the image and does not reference specific CBAP learning documents or resources.
