Written by Alif Fadli, Business Analyst Intern back in 2021.
BVSR stands for Bukit Vista Standard of Reporting. The purpose of implementing this method is to increase the level of discussion efficiency of each chapter when doing scrum.
There are 2 types of methods in reporting the results of analysis for 2 different conditions.
-
- Analysis reports for the performance of routine activities
-
- Analysis reports for ongoing research.
If you have any questions, please write them in the table below

Bukit Vista also has standard of reporting both for routine activities and experiment documentation. I, Alif, will share you the standard of it. Please check this out:
Routine Activities Documentation
Reporting For a campaign performance analysis report/routine activities, I usually arrange my report this way: (done for activities that have been carried out previously and will continue in the future) example : Instagram/Airbnb/Website/Facebook Campaign.
1. Action Point
I will always start my analysis report with any action points that I have done, as much as possible I will make sure everything is written in this section
Example : “Last week I’ve made content changes to the Facebook platform by adding captions to photos.”
2. Performance
To find out how the results of the action points that I have done, I added a performance section, in this section I explain the positive and negative impacts of the action points that I have done. In this section I will input the data from the actions that I have carried out to determine their performance. A good performance report will contain qualitative as well as quantitative explanations.
Example : “based on the results of the experiments I did last week, the latest content that I created got quite a high insight. impressions are up about 90%, reach is up about 70%, but inquiries remain stable at 7-10 inquiries per week. “
3. Conclusion and Next Week Plan
I will close my analysis report with conclusions and also what action points I plan to do for the next week. From the performance we can find out what things need to be improved and also maintained.
Example : “ The increase in the number I got from yesterday’s performance was because I optimized the use of the available features, this helped us in increasing reach. and for next week plan my schedule will be…..1……2…..3….”
Experiment Documentation
Reporting For experiment/research that is being carried out
(done when we conduct an experiment to solve a problem):
Example: Ongoing research project, Reporting for meeting.
1. Background
Before making a report I usually include the background of this report to provide clarity to my audience
2. Observation
From doing this observation, I know what parameters to focus on to make my analysis easier later.
3. Hypothesis
In this section I will include all the hypotheses that I have, I will write down all possible answers to the problems that I found at the observation stage.
4. Solution
Then I will end my report with a solution of the hypothesis I have, the solution listed must be an executable solution.
5. More questions
I believe that nothing is perfect, so everything I have done must still have weaknesses. I usually ask a new question on the weakness in order to get a new solution.
Tips to Report Our Analysis
Always remember
“Analytical report is not just reading existing data and just telling people stories, its not a good analysis. However, a good analysis will try to find the reasons behind the data we get ”
- Make it a habit to explain something difficult to be easy to understand and don’t complicate easy things
- Use simple explanation but structured and to the point, don’t use repeated sentences because it will cause ineffectiveness
- Don’t just explain the data, always explain what’s behind the data
- In the end, improvisation is the key to doing good analytical reporting. Feel free to reduce or add the methods listed in this paper.
- This paper is only a minimum standard of reporting, if you have a more effective and efficient method, I am very open to new innovations.
Positive and negative impacts by implementing analysis and reporting methods like this
Positive :
- Provide clarity to the audience: when we present a report with this method, everyone will understand what we are reporting.
- Improve the quality in our discussion: by reporting the analysis in an organized manner, the quality of the discussion will be better and also know what problems we need to face. Our audience will also have directions for the questions they want to ask.
Negative:
- Need more time
- Lot of people say that reporting like this are very ineffective, but in fact by reporting in an organized manner we can determine what action points can be executed to solve a problem
