Building a business intelligence (BI) strategy
Date: Apr 29, 2010Deploying an arsenal of business intelligence (BI) reporting tools and other BI software products may do little for a company unless it has a solid and well grounded BI strategy supporting its BI tools and platforms. The problem is that a lot of businesses lack formal BI strategies and may even see the term BI strategy as an oxymoron, according to Jill Dyche, a partner and co-founder of Baseline Consulting and an expert on BI and data management technologies.
