Understand how to proceed with your Business Intelligence implementation, and why.
Business Intelligence provides a centralized window into all aspects and all applications that support an enterprise. It is often the proverbial hub of a complex organization of "data" spokes that truly keep a business rolling.
But when an organization takes its first steps toward coordinating and reporting on all aspects of its concern, they quickly recognize that it can become a complex integration of tools and processes that should be given careful foresight and consideration.
Data Management Group employs the Transform Methodology™, incorporating a 4 step methodology to support our clients. This methodology allows us to tame the complexity and our "Blueprint" is the first deliverable resulting from the "Assess" step.
Deliverables:
The Assess step involves an extensive Gap Analysis survey. We first help you by identifying and documenting specific goals you want to achieve that would provide the greatest enhancement to your Business Intelligence position. We then contrast that with your current in-house expertise and tool investments to map out the best strategy and approach to achieving that goal.
Our Blueprint process involves an exhaustive site review of our client's current intelligence assets and requirements. Our experience and knowledge of best practices benefit our clients by providing them the right guidance to ensure a successful and well matched solution. With our Blueprint document in hand, our clients are well positioned by not only knowing how they will proceed but also why.
Data Management Group's Assess step and Blueprint documentation are performed and authored by experts that are committed to the practice of Business Intelligence. In fact, since our company's inception in 1995, we have always sought after and attracted the individuals that are excited about the true value and important role that Business Intelligence plays in EVERY organization.
Some key points that our Blueprints cover are:
- Elicit and define detailed business requirements by considering the needs of all employees who would use and thus become involved in its success.
- Evaluate current tools, in-house expertise, and processes to determine their level of contribution to the projects success.
- Document current information technology infrastructure and control processes and make recommendations to fill gaps.
- Define with more accuracy the project's scope and work effort.
- Develop a project plan that clearly defines the people, steps, assignments required to achieve the project goal.
- Define a development path that allows the system to easily grow and be maintained.
