Common Goals, Common Problems • In search of the Holy Grail or How I looked on the web and found nothing. • More/ better sources • How to I add more value? • The mechanic vs the heart surgeon • Need to reduce effort and increase output • Eliminate duplication • Decrease turn-around time • Improve efficiency, decision making and competitiveness • Ensure easier access to information • Internal customer access • Information structure • Access points • Common look and feel • If you like sausage don’t work in a sausage factory. • Jimmy Dean promotes taste not compliance to the specification for maximum allowable rodent hair. Mechanic: How come you get paid so much more than I do? We both utilize specialized knowledge to diagnose problems and have the skills, tools and capability to repair them. You simply work on the heart of a person while I work on the engine or heart of a car? Heart Surgeon: You’re right, but I do my work while the engine is still running.

So what is RoBIN? And Why Do I Want to Be Part of It?
What is RoBIN? RoBIN will be whatever we decided it should be! • Initial Proposal • A cross functional network of Rockwell business intelligence related personnel that: • Share best practices, analysis tools, resources, data, etc. • Improve Rockwell’s overall business intelligence capabilities through consistent and more rigorous methodologies and analysis tools. • Provide each other with shared insights, support, and extended your network of knowledge. • Act as a benchmark for continuous improvement in the quality of Rockwell’s common understanding for the market. • Provide a greater voice within the organization to act as an agent of change.
Tools, Tips, and Other Points to Ponder Tips • SCIP • In search of the Holy Grail or how I looked on the web and found nothing • Site search engine • Relative Market Share • The two hour analysis • The ‘source’ reference • The power of “So what?” Or if you were the customer what would you do with the information? • Less is the new more. • Indicators – when you can’t find the information you need use the information you find. • Avoid the “seeker of knowledge” • What drives businesses – hierarchy of needs • What drives value vs importance. Tools • Key Personnel / Corporate Profiling • KIT – Key Intelligence Topics • FAROUT • Future oriented • Accuracy • Resource efficiency • Objectivity • Usefulness • Timeliness • Strengths & Weaknesses of SWOT • Best Source vs Available Source • Personal “tool-kit” Sample Other Point to Ponder • 1996 Espionage Act • Business Intelligence Software
FYTD05 Accomplishments • EMEA Sales summit held in January for 35 sales people • Conducted Black Belt training Chicago in February (36 students) • Completed hiring of new Corporate Account Managers and Vice President in January 2005 • Signed strategic supplier agreement with Major Customer • Added to the MES specification at Major Customer (after a losing the "technical bake-off" 1 year ago) • Won HVAC PEMS specification at Major Customer. Major Customer placed Rockwell Automation on approved list of Engineering Services Providers (ESPs) for PEMS, RFID, Boiler Controls, Dough Mixing.

Situational Greater Value Knowledge Skills Experience Waiter Mailman Less Value Police Officer Auto Mechanic Less Importance Greater Importance Value vs Importance Which of these professions are in general more valued then the other? Entertainer Sports Star Heart Surgeon Trial Lawyer Which of these professions are in general more important then the other?
Importance of Organization Value to Organization Hierarchy of Business Needs Transcendence needs: Organizational Legacy Philanthropist needs: Social Improvement Organization Esteem needs: Organizational Recognition Industry needs: Industry Leadership, brand recognition Performance needs: Profitability, Growth, Competitiveness Stakeholders needs: Satisfaction of Stakeholders – Is our job/ money secure? Economic needs: Economic stability, security – Can we make predictable decisions Basic needs: Investment, market, resources, customers, meet governmental requirements – Are we going to be in business?
Value of Business Intelligence Value of BI • Importance is situational based • Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs vs Hierarchy of Business Needs. • Would your Customer pay an Outside Agency to do this? If so, how much would they charge • Why is my report worth more then one from ARC’s, AMR’s, Frost & Sullivan? • No outside agency will ever understand Rockwell’s business as well as Rockwell. • When is an outside report a better value then one from me? • When they have access to information you can’t get to do to their position in the market or can spread the cost of the report over a larger audience.
Future looking information for current long term business decision.

How is the process control market different then building controls? Who is their primary challenger for the total market? Where should Honeywell focus its effort for building controls?
Business Intelligence Overview • Our customers are relying on Business Intelligence to help turn complex data into actionable intelligence so they can succeed in implementing these “high hards”. • Example: Automation Controls in the Pharmaceutical Market • Management wants to know where should they focus available resources to grow the sales of automation controls within the pharma market. • Market Segments • Customers Buying Behavior • Competitive Positioning • Area of Focus
Outputs: Past, Present and Future • Direct to customer • Limit Access? • Expected Shelf Life • Building a Maintenance Nightmare or Information Dream? • Path Forward is there a Future for RoBIN • Set up common infrastructure for all • Analysis Tools workshop
