Making Business Intelligence Relevant for Mid-sized Companies
Improving Business Results through Performance Management
Executive Summary
Today’s economic and market conditions have made it difficult for companies of all sizes to achieve their business goals. This is particularly true for mid-sized companies that have less unused capacity in their people, resources and processes, and limited latitude in the markets they serve. With this as a backdrop it is natural that companies look for ways to improve their business results; to increase efficiencies and reduce costs; and to improve market competitiveness.
Larger companies have invested heavily in Business Intelligence (BI) solutions to gather the data they need to make sound strategic decisions, and to analyze their results. This type of investment can be prohibitively expensive for small and mid-sized companies and may not align well with the fast-paced, execution orientation of these companies.
