Exton, P.A. (PRWEB) October 11, 2007 -- Millbrook Incorporated announced today The Main Street America Group, a super regional property-casualty insurance carrier, has chosen to upgrade to the Millbrook Information Suite (MIS) to enhance its enterprise-wide business intelligence (BI) platform. Main Street America's deployment of this best-of-breed solution combines the property-casualty tested performance of Millbrook's data models and insurance business methodologies with Business Objects'™ world class BI platform.

According to Millbrook officials, the upgrade to Millbrook's MIS and the proven BusinessObjects™ BI Platform will enhance Main Street America's data availability and access. Millbrook also indicates the power of the new BI platform will significantly improve MSA's ability to push information out to the organization where it's needed. The upgrade is a significant enhancement to MSA's overall BI Platform.

Roy Viands, Main Street America's Director of Corporate Technical Planning is pleased to have the project underway.

"With the success we've already had with Millbrook's Beacon BI solutions, the upgrade to MIS and the BusinessObjects™ BI Platform will continue to help us enhance our BI platform and create the information systems necessary for MSA's continued success," Viands said.

Millbrook President Jack Plunkett added that, "We are pleased to be engaged with the upgrade and enhancements to Main Street America's BI platform. Their commitment to Business Intelligence and their past successes with Millbrook implementations will contribute significantly to the success of this project."    

The Millbrook and Business Objects Relationship is based on the understanding that the insurance industry would benefit from the integration of BusinessObjects™ BI platform and Millbrook's insurance data models, pre-defined ETL processes and unsurpassed domain knowledge of the Property & Casualty insurance environment. Millbrook's successful Beacon BI product is being retired by Millbrook who now offer its customers a significantly enhanced and more robust solution that includes the integration of its acclaimed data models and property- casualty specific products with world-class BI platforms.
