What is Business Intelligence?
The term is bandied about frequently these days, but what does it really mean? In the world of business performance management - one of BlueGranite's key practice areas - it means developing a competitive advantage by using your company's information strategically.
Business Intelligence presents easy-to-use information directly to people where they work, collaborate, and make decisions. The premise is straightforward enough, but putting it into action isn't always easy. The problem isn't getting the data, it is translating that data into information - consistently, in real time and across the enterprise.
When analytical data is readily available and understandable, your employees can more easily act in ways that improve performance and support the overall business strategy. Business Intelligence is a toolset that includes robust, dynamic business scorecards, dashboards, analyses, and reporting systems so everyone throughout the company can make better decisions, faster.
Business Intelligence improves alignment and accountability throughout your organization. Empowered by these strategic tools, your team can help articulate strategy, set objectives, monitor performance, perform group analysis, and then make informed decisions.
