Project description
The primary objective of our project is to develop an automated system for SPIE capable of analyzing data and generating outputs based on the results, utilizing AI to determine predefined outcomes. Additionally, the project emphasizes the importance of implementing robust data security measures throughout the process.
This leads us to our research question:
How can a Business Controller at SPIE improve and enhance the quality and speed of analyses through effective data interactions and reporting processes?
Context
The Business Control department at SPIE seeks an independent and reliable partner to advise and support the management team, ultimately contributing to the organization's success.
As SPIE continues to generate increasing amounts of data, the availability of personnel to analyze and interpret this information has become more limited. However, leveraging data effectively is critical for making informed decisions and achieving organizational goals.
Through this project, SPIE aims to explore how AI can positively contribute to addressing these challenges. The focus is on reducing the time spent on routine tasks and implementing AI solutions capable of interpreting available data to enhance decision-making processes.
Domains: Finance and Software
Results
We have been developing an AI system capable of generating PowerPoint presentations based on collected data and providing insights into the potential reasons behind specific outcomes. This process ensures that data is securely managed within a Microsoft Azure environment and utilized by the AI systems to initiate the analysis effectively.
Our project is on this moment at TRLevel: 6
