How Ribbon Works
Data Source Connection
Each application data source comes with an automated connector—whether it's a labor tracking app or consultant's PDF file. The connector extracts your business data on a timeline that makes sense for the decision-makers in your company, and then stores it in a data warehouse, where it can be accessed by the entire organization. Connectors take hundreds of engineering-hours to develop and test, so we've built them for you.
Storage & Management
Your data is ingested, cleaned, and transformed for analysis. All your data is stored in a secure data warehouse maintained by Loftus Labs engineers. Your IT department and analysts have full access (if required). Your data remains your data. If you stop working with Loftus Labs, you inherit management of the warehouse.
Best-Practice Analytics & KPIs
Each data source comes with its own batch of analytic tools and key performance indicators (KPIs) that help you improve the performance of your business. When you subscribe to Ribbon: Core, you quickly get access to data tools that have been developed with other subject matter experts in your industry. All your data and all your tools are in one, central location so there's no more app-hopping.
Customized Data & Reports
During the onboarding process, our experienced data analysts work with your team to adapt the data and reports to your business requirements for maximum relevance. Ribbon subscribers do not make their first payment until they can access their data in an analytic tool or data warehouse.
Industry Best Practices
Better business decision-making requires more than data and dashboards. Each tool needs effective processes and change management strategies to succeed. During the onboarding process, we ensure your team learns from other businesses' successful implementations of these tools.
DIY Analysis in Tableau™️
Our analytics tools are built using Tableau™️, the industry-leading data visualization and analysis platform. Each Ribbon client has the option to use a Tableau Creator license, empowering your team to build custom dashboards, perform deep-dive analysis, and unlock valuable insights from your data. With Tableau's intuitive drag-and-drop interface and powerful analytical capabilities, you can explore your data independently and create impactful visualizations that drive better business decisions.
Analytic Tool Updates
Stay ahead of industry trends with continuous access to new analytics tools and report enhancements, developed from insights across our member network. As a Ribbon subscriber, you'll automatically receive these updates to ensure your business benefits from the latest best practices.
Data Updates & Maintenance
As your business evolves with new assets, employees, and applications, your data landscape becomes increasingly complex. Our expert data engineers work proactively to maintain data quality, ensuring your information stays clean, organized, and ready for analysis. We handle the technical heavy lifting of data maintenance and updates, eliminating the need to build and manage your own in-house data engineering team. This allows you to focus on deriving insights and making strategic decisions while we keep your data foundation solid and reliable.
Optional Analytic Support
Need to tackle more complex analyses or explore new analytical territories? You can enhance your existing Ribbon subscription with additional analytical capabilities to meet your growing business needs.
