Business Intelligence
Who has a need for
Business Intelligence?
People asking the following:
•
My company makes all its decisions based on historical reports from
separate systems that are not consolidated
•
I think better forecasting with the ability to estimate and track actual
costs and revenue would help my company
•
Business Reporting and Analysis is put together by the Finance
department and is delivered late and always looking back
•
We need the ability to measure and analyse our performance against
company Targets / KPI’s / Balance Scorecard from a single place

Who has a need for
Business Intelligence?
People asking the following:

I am frustrated by the amount of time that is spent manipulating
data that will be out of date when it is finally presented

We need tools that we can easily configure to proactively alert us
of potential problem areas so we can address them proactively
