BENEFITS OF BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE (BI)

Visualize Data

Data that is presented well visually can be easily consumed to support decision-making. Studies show most learning is visual and that the brain processes visual information at 60,000 times the rate of non-visual information. For most situations and decision-makers, charts and graphs are generally superior to tables and raw numbers.

Pull Real-Time Data

For systems that generate data in real-time, automated business intelligence dashboard updates can improve decision quality over stakeholders needing to wait on reports to be compiled manually. Designing the right data procurement processes and BI solutions is key to making real-time data availability actionable.

Customize and Interact With Data

Having data in a format that’s not easily understandable or accessible is almost like not having any data at all. The ability to filter and drill deeper into curated data sets in a flexible manner allows decision-makers to easily find insights that meet their information needs. The interactive nature of BI, combined with well-curated data procurement, is key to making data useful for decisioning, thus unlocking your data’s inherent value.

Accurate Data Analysis

Although dashboards are often quite visually appealing, their pleasing aesthetics can potentially lend unwarranted credibility to the underlying data’s accuracy. Analyzing bad data can lead to bad decisions and create even worse problems for organizations. This is why managing data quality is so important as part of an effective BI solution and organizational data capture in general. Good data management practices upstream of BI are an important capability to develop in tandem with your BI solution.

Why You Should Employ Information Management Tools

Data is strongly tied to an organization’s strategic direction because your strategy should guide what data you focus on. However, data should also be leveraged to inform strategic decisions. When managed well, this virtuous cycle of information can fuel innovation and competitive advantage. Competing on data requires a deliberate management focus on data utility and accessibility to drive sound decision-making. This management focus requires strategic consideration of the right metrics and incentive structures to encourage behaviors that will drive performance.
