Cross-region data collection and reporting system for multinational organizations

A method for collecting and aggregating cross-region data for a multinational corporation (MNC), the method comprising:

• identifying a plurality of regions associated with the MNC;
• generating a region data collecting timer job for each of the identified regions, each region data collecting job being programmed to collect predefined data within one of the identified regions;
• triggering execution of each region data collecting job during off-peak hours of the region in which the region data collecting job is being executed;
• causing the region data collecting job for each of the identified regions to compute a region aggregate for the region associated with the region data collecting job using data collected from the associated region;
• after region aggregates have been computed for all of the identified regions, using a data collection component to compute a global aggregate based on the region aggregates;
• processing the global aggregate to generate reporting data using a data processing component;
• and
• generating one or more reports based on the reporting data using a reporting generating component.

A non-transitory computer readable medium on which are stored instructions that, when executed, cause a programmable device to perform functions of:

• identifying a plurality of regions associated with a multinational corporation (MNC);
• generating a region data collecting job for each of the identified regions, each region data collecting job being programmed to collect predefined data within one of the identified regions;
• triggering execution of each region data collecting job during off-peak hours of the region in which the region data collecting job is being executed;
• causing the region data collecting job for each of the identified regions to compute a region aggregate for the region associated with the region data collecting job using data collected from the associated region;
• once region aggregates have been computed for all of the identified regions, using a data collection component to compute a global aggregate based on the region aggregates;
• processing the global aggregate to generate reporting data using a data processing component;
• and
• generating one or more reports based on the reporting data using a report generating component.
