Summary: More than a year ago, SAS made a strategic decision to strengthen our focus on the U.S. intelligence
community (IC) by forming a new business unit (SAS Federal, LLC). Since then, the explosion of data in the IC has
only grown and the threats to national security continue to evolve more rapidly. In my opinion, there’s an urgent
need for the application of advanced analytics in the IC to defeat national security threats and, ultimately, save lives.
SAS took a big step towards meeting that need today with the acquisition of Vision Systems and Technology, Inc.
(VSTI), a professional services company that has been delivering analytic solutions to the U.S. IC for over a decade.

investment banker― telling him how to run his company. In the wake of a global economic downturn that
hammered capital markets, led to the shuttering of century-old financial institutions and was triggered by the risky

Telematics refers to the use of wireless devices to transmit data in real time back to an organization. For insurance it

vehicle location and usage, such as information on air bag deployments, how fast and distance traveled, and stolen
vehicle locations through the use of GPS technology. The data recorded in the vehicle can then be used to develop
more accurate pricing, improve granularity in risk management and reduce losses by better assessments of claims.

Alan Karr, the director of the institute. The exact number of statisticians in the Triangle isn’t clear, but the majority
of the American Statistical Association’s 871 North Carolina members are in the Triangle, and there are others
who are not association members. The Triangle’s strengths in the field come from the large number of
businesses that employ statisticians as well as the universities that train them. Read more: Thanks to SAS, Quntiles,

to look at predictive analytics as a data-driven way of exposing risks at a micro-level across different domains within
an organization. For example, insurance companies should expose risks in rate making, insurance fraud, customer
retention, customer credit in order to influence and impact risk-based decision making at a macro-level.

Summary: When Jim Goodnight founded SAS Institute Inc. in 1976, the business analytics industry was in its infancy
and terms like globalization and social media had yet to be invented. Today, the Cary, N.C.-based firm has more than
11,000 employees and operates in 100 countries on projects that range from assessing risk for banks to catching tax
cheats for governments to planning routes for airlines. As Mr. Goodnight describes it, SAS "uses companies'
historical data to work out their futures." Mr. Goodnight is the majority owner of the privately owned SAS -- the
company reported revenue of $2.31 billion in 2009, of which 11% came from Asia. This year, he forecasts the
company to grow revenues 5% globally, and highlights Asia as the fastest-growing region -- he expects revenue in
the region to increase 30% from 2009. Though SAS is smaller than its rivals SAP AG, Oracle Corp. and International
Business Machines Corp., it has never endured a loss in its 34 years of operation. Mr. Goodnight talked to Jason
Chow in Hong Kong about the risks to growth and the potential in Asia.

Tone: Negative
Summary: I was reading this article in the Wall Street Journal on SAS software and CEO Jim Goodnight said,
“We’re producing so many new products. [They're all] in the funnel and we’ve got to get them in
production and it’s taking us longer to get them out the door…. A lot of the problems are testing issues. It’s
taking too long to solve all the problems. Every piece of software has its bugs. And with more and more products,
we’re struggling with compatibility to make sure the next release is easy to migrate to for certain customers. With
the sheer number of software solutions we have, it’s making it harder and harder to develop and test them
all.― Which got me to wondering why SAS does not take advantage of its considerable user base. In another
article from CBR Business Intelligence, it’s claimed that SAS has 45,000 customer sites. (Not that I’m
stalking y’all or anything). I have no idea what the average number of users is at each site but let’s try a
really low estimate of around 22. I say really low because I know that many of those sites are universities and
corporations that have hundreds of users and it would take a heck of a lot of small shops to bring it down to 22, but
let’s go with that. So, this gives them around a million users.

Tone: Positive
Summary: The great thing about SAS is that it’s so powerful and has such a broad offering. You’re able to
have all these tools at your fingertips to develop distinct models for each part of the process. So, even just trying to
capture the spread of a message, you may use one tool to deal with multiple social media and interactive touch
points and then another for removing correlations between those touch points and looking at causes. Then, you can
use a different area of SAS to develop models for ROI and another for forecasting models, yet it’s all self-
contained. Once you build your data sets, you can slice it in so many different ways without having to switch from one
software package to another. The other great thing is all the SAS user blogs and the wide reach of SAS, not only
through SAS user groups, but the ability to sit in presentations from different industries and learn from what
they’re doing. Sometimes I hear how the Census Bureaus or medical research companies are using SAS, and
that outside perspective just fits perfectly for how we’re looking at customer life cycles in a different way.

biggest priority these days is his concern that America isn't turning out enough new scientists and mathematicians to
prevent the flow of jobs and critical research to Asia and elsewhere. "Twenty-first century employers are looking for
workers who are proficient in science, technology, engineering and math, but in American schools these are not
areas of great interest," Goodnight said during a lecture sponsored by a longtime SAS-partner, the Wharton

Tone: Positive
Summary: There’s been a lot of discussion of whether Bart De Wever’s participation in the quiz show ‘De
Slimste Mens’ was appropriate/clever while the government formation is moving so slowly. While I don’t want
to comment on that (well, actually, I’d quite like to, but I’ll spare you ;-) ), I thought this little analysis using
SAS Social Media Analytics could be useful food-for-thought as companies of every shape and size are scrambling to
get their arms around the social media explosion and how it will impact their business.

Summary: This has been brought about by a number of significant occurrences. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 allowed
the South to move into the mainstream of national economic and social/cultural activity. Progressive leadership in
North Carolina, like Terry Sanford and Jim Hunt, acted as visionary facilitators in moving North Carolina in new
directions. They foresaw the need for a strong community college system, for better public schools, for a research
triangle park, for an effective partnership between public and private sector leaders. They recruited new progressive
business leaders to help shape the state's future, leaders like Hugh McColl at NationsBank, James Goodnight at SAS
Institute, Bob Ingram at Glaxo, John Medlin at Wachovia, and Jim Goodman at Capital Broadcasting to help move the
state forward. Together, they charted a course for the state that resulted in a new, vibrant, 21st century North
Carolina.

sales focus is very vertical, within larger countries and regionally to support the smaller countries. SAS remains very
strongly focused on solution-selling and value-based. SAS is also trying to get customers to focus on incremental
projects – doing a single phase, getting a return from that, and then investing that return in a subsequent phase –
while also educating the c-suite on the meaning and value of analytics.
