Children’s Rights in Society Better Supports Organizational Mission with Advanced, Integrated, and Streamlined Business Intelligence Tools

Children’s Rights in Society (BRIS) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of children and youth and offers support services to improve their lives and living conditions. The organization consists of two main branches—the direct aid arm, which serves as a link between children, adults, and society; and a public awareness arm, which aims to influence key decision-makers on the needs of young people. The organization is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, and operates five local offices across the country.

The organization needed to streamline operations to enable the more efficient handling of specific child issues and cases communicated to the organization, to improve its ability to help children and youth, and support the organization’s overall mission.

With the assistance of Oracle Consulting, BRIS implemented Oracle Business Intelligence Suite, Enterprise Edition Plus to create an integrated and unified business intelligence platform. Following deployment, the organization realized increased efficiency and quality in data collection, analysis, and reports—while significantly decreasing time spent collecting and analyzing case data—ultimately enabling the organization to spend more time addressing, supporting, and advocating for the rights of individual children and youth.
