MicroStrategy Software Maintenance and Support Renewal

Added: Jul 05, 2016 3:18 pm U.S. Department of Education, Federal Student Aid (FSA) has a continued need for MicroStrategy Corporation's (MicroStrategy) Mobile, Legacy Architect, Legacy Server, Legacy Web software services for data warehousing, data mining, and reporting.

There is a continuing need to purchase the maintenance for MicroStrategy. This commercial software is used extensively within FSA for business intelligence and reporting. It is the data warehouse, data mining and reporting tool standard for FSA. It is used to build datamarts using extracts loaded from FSA's systems. Reports and metrics are created from these datamarts to support management of institution based programs and student information. Power users use MicroStrategy to write their own metrics using facts and attributes stored within the datamarts. The mobile licenses are used to build reports and applications that can be viewed on various cell phones, iPads, and other mobile devices in order to deliver reports, transactions, and information in multimedia content.

The software service provides FSA users with the ability to perform analysis and reporting for program compliance, default prevention, financial management, and operational reporting on several data sources within FSA. It is currently used by FPDM and eZaudit. The new IPM solution is exploring its use for fulfilling reporting requirements for institutions.
