Dear Sir, Madam,
I currently live in Mauritius and am looking to work as a freelancer on remote SAP Business Objects projects.

• Installation of a new Business Objects Server
• Implementation of BO security and data partitioning
• Administration of the Business Objects repository
• Development of Web Intelligence reports or formerly Desktop Intelligence
• Development of universes (UNV and/or UNX)
• Implementation of multilingual universes

In addition, I would be happy to provide you with a quote for a migration service including the audit, migration of the BO repository, installation, acceptance testing, support until go-live + warranty (optional).
