Description

Business intelligence (BI) refers to the gathering, organization, analysis and communication of actionable information on a company, its competitors, its customers, and the industry to support strategic and tactical decision-making. BI applications integrate structured and unstructured data from a variety of sources and synthesize the results into forms that allow business leaders to take action. BI technologies provide historical, current and predictive views of business operations. Business intelligence technologies are made up of reporting tools, online analytical processing, data mining, process mining, complex event processing, business performance management, benchmarking, text mining, and predictive analytics.

Business Value

Value from business intelligence comes from information access and visibility, and from data mining and analysis to discover trends and patterns in the data. BI is best utilized when executives and managers have ease of access and are able to allow the facts of situations to inform their business decisions. A broad range of applications for BI has helped companies rack up impressive ROI figures. Business intelligence has been used to identify cost-cutting ideas, uncover business opportunities, roll enterprise resource planning data into accessible reports, react quickly to retail demand and optimize prices.
