Business Intelligence
Business Intelligence Solution Approach:
So the questions begin; What should you do to gain not just visibility, but insight and eventually predictive and actionable insight? Is buying a multitude of tools the answer? Is enhancing your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) based reporting solution the answer, or is investing in a new ‘Reporting Tool’ the answer?
Unfortunately, not one of the above options is a viable one. ERP reporting tools are just not architectured for reporting, period! A ‘tools’ based approach is flawed, because you are still working in silo. Last thing you need is a specialized solution in a narrow realm.
Businesses are like an orchestra, to get the best music you need to have the combination of instruments working together harmoniously. Similarly, in business, you need to cut across the silos of Sales, Fulfillment, Procurement, Accounting, Finance, etc. to build a holistic picture of your business. What you need to achieve that, is a Business Intelligence (BI) Strategy, a holistic BI Solution approach for your Enterprise.
