Investments in business intelligence (BI) can facilitate significant business value. However, to maximize the business impact of BI, it is critical that these investments be driven by prioritized business needs of the organization and address required changes in business processes, organizations, skills, data and technology. Revere provides its BI Roadmap service to help its clients address these need.
Revere’s approach for developing the BI Roadmaps is to work collaboratively with IT and business users to:
- Define a prioritized set of business objectives and high-level BI-related business requirements. This will be derived from the client’s business priorities as well as suggestions from Revere regarding how data, analytics, metrics and reporting can be used to improve business performance based on our experience and best practices.
- Assess the client’s current technical and business environment, including BI-related applications, business processes, organization/skills, technical infrastructure and data.
- Develop a phased plan for evolving from the current state to the desired future state, based on potential levels of investment and ability to change, via a series of manageable initiatives that will each deliver significant business value to the organization.
