CHALLENGE In today’s increasingly competitive and uncertain marketplace, winning organizations and successful individuals will be those who first spot new opportunities, best manage risks, or most swiftly react to unforeseen events in the business. These new insights need to come from peoplefreely asking questions and getting answers at the speed of thought. They sit within critical processes and departments and are under great pressure to solve new problems every day. Unfortunately, most organizations have a significant gap in their ability to support the fast-paced, dynamic decision-making needs of today. Despite investments in business intelligence (BI) reporting, commercial or custom applications and hard-to-use stats packages, when business and technical professionals need to answer new questions and analyze data, they resort to copying data into spreadsheets or are forced to wait for new reports from IT. Meanwhile, IT professionals are hard-pressed to keep up with end users’ demands.
