Complementary BI: The New Approach to Business Intelligence

Overview The role of Business Intelligence (BI) to help organizations drive top-line revenue growth, profitability increases, operational improvements, and customer satisfaction is well documented. Many businesses have existing business intelligence efforts that serve their business' needs to some degree, while IT organizations have plans or are in the process of building out a more comprehensive BI solution. Often some business users are serviced well, while many others continue to struggle to get access to the critical data they need to be effective in their jobs. Getting their new reports written or analytical tools deployed is simply not always possible for an overburdened IT organization that is focused on delivering longer term strategic objectives.
