The Challenges…. • BI and Analytics continues to be important. Since
2001 in the Top 5 Technology’s • 40% of BI all solutions are never completed or
provide the proposed value • Building a traditional BI Data warehouse solution
from scratch can take 2-6 months and 8+ technology skill sets
ERP
The Socius View of Analytics • BI is much more than reporting • BI is not about the best or latest technology. Its
about Ease of Use and Adoption • Changing the mindset in organization to become a
“Learning Organization” • Analysis, Alerts, Visual Presentation • Don’t just show data, create Actionable Data • Right time / Right place
ERP
What is a Dashboard? • A business intelligence dashboard is a data visualization tool
that displays the current status of metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) for an Organization. Dashboards consolidate and arrange numbers, metrics and scorecards on a single screen.
