A Closer Look SAP Fieldglass Live Insights, A New Market Intelligence-Based Decisioning Tool

In late April, we covered the介绍SAP FieldGlass Live Insights，将在创建和释放申请之前可以使用的分析决策支持能力，以便在创建和释放申请之前进行数据通知的判断，并分析不同的采购策略和方案。从那时起，我们有机会接受实时见解的演示和关于发布进度的更新。（注意：由于截图没有提供，因此我们只能描述我们在演示期间看到和听到的内容。）

Demo Overview

树液Fieldglass Live Insights offers users a highly intuitive and visual interface, as well as the ability to do real-time slicing and dicing and drill downs into labor market data (client data, Fieldglass data and external data). Simplicity and usability were clearly design priorities, given that the are only two main interface points or dashboards — but powerful ones — for business users:

• Workforce Indexis a highly intuitive interactive interface (i.e., dashboard) that allows users to flexibly generate — in real time — a set of key sourcing data points (e.g., bill rates, time-to-fill ratios, candidates available by industry, etc.). Using easy pull downs, users can slice-and-dice by job category, job role, state, location and time period. Visualization features are prominent, with a live geographical visualization in the center of the display and other visualizations (such as a scatter plot of bill rates versus time-to-fill ratios, a quality of assignment outcome graphic, etc.). Contextual information (at this time cost of living data, educational levels) is also presented in graphical form. While it may seem like the interface must be extremely crowded and hard to navigate, the opposite is true.
• 本地模拟is a simple, even sparse, interface that provides users with the ability to easily specify, explore and examine different contract external workforce sourcing scenarios by location. Again, this can be done for specific industry, job category, job role and time period. The user is presented with four key data points (external bill rate, permanent hourly wage, time-to-fill and candidates per job). These can also be benchmarked against national averages. Finally, the interface presents two bar charts showing the five locations with the highest and the lowest bill rates and time-to-fill ratios.

重新强调的一个重要点是SAP FialsGlass实时见解可以战术和战略性地使用。显而易见的是，它可以使用例如支持职位申请的发展，从而具有重要的市场情报。战略性地，它可用于游戏不同的采购策略。例如，在客户主要总部位于客户的高成本市场中，不要提供人才;相反，客户端以较低的成本，高电源市场，客户拥有未使用的办公空间的卫星位置。

技术

A key technology behind Live Insights is SAP HANA, SAP’s “in-memory database” solution that makes flexible, on-the-fly, real-time interactions possible. In addition, machine learning is used today to normalize jobs and job names — certainly something that brings efficiency and supports more precise, quality outputs. Market data-driven predictive analytics are also embedded in the Local Simulation capability.

Finally, we’ve discussed the interface at length already, but it doesn’t hurt to reemphasize that it is top-notch in terms of simplicity, visualization and usability. Moreover, power users can easily go under the covers to work more directly with the actual underlying data.

Summary

SAP FieldGlass实时洞察力，即使在其第一个Rev中，也是企业用户的令人印象深刻的分析决策支持能力。传统上，企业用户在创建申请之前提供了很少的劳动力市场智能，并且基本上没有数据驱动的工具已经可以支持策略/方案建模。从理论上讲，SAP FialBlass Live Insights为企业用户提供了重大功能，以积极影响采购成本，速度和质量。它提供了这些复杂的功能，但虽然是一个简单而直观的界面。

如上所述，实况见解在4月下旬开始在具有三个未命名的FieldGlass客户端之后的试点。因此，它是一种新的解决方案，现在将在市场上进行测试。我们期待将来跟进衡量采用和客户的观点，并了解有关产品路线图的更多信息。
