Business Intelligence Needs Assessment

Your organization – and its information requirements – are unique, and should be the key consideration when planning any business intelligence initiative. So, before you embark on your project, you must understand what you really need and expect from your new information system. This insight will help you choose the right solution for your business – one that will deliver the valuable, mission-critical information you need to overcome your challenges and achieve your goals.

The Croyten business intelligence needs assessment is a comprehensive service delivered by our skilled and knowledgeable consultants. We’ll work closely with your team to ensure that the reporting and analysis environment you deploy is the one that will meet your distinct needs.

During the business intelligence needs assessment, our consultants will:

• Work with your executives, managers, and other functional leaders to understand your company’s core mission, as well as its strategic and tactical goals and primary business drivers.
• Identify your company’s core base of information consumers, and outline the types of data they need to access and analyze in order to perform their jobs more effectively and better contribute to the company’s success.
• Review your current data environment, to identify where important enterprise information resides, and determine how accessible it is to key decision makers.
• Conduct an in-depth gap analysis, to uncover where system weaknesses and information access limitations currently exist, and how they can be overcome with business intelligence.
• Assess your organization’s risks, including corporate “readiness”, expenses, schedules, and resource constraints, to prevent potential issues from hindering the success of your business intelligence implementation.
• Identify the metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) your company should be monitoring and measuring in order to achieve its objectives.
• Make recommendations regarding roll-out and training, to ensure the highest level of end user adoption and satisfaction with your new system.
