Business Intelligence

While the term "Business Intelligence" or BI is increasingly prevalent in Board Rooms and Director's meetings, its foundation lies in a very simple, well-used premise. Optimization of performance - whether we're talking about a NASCAR team, an Olympic team or your organization - requires gathering and storing metrics of current activity, analyzing the data, making decisions on what you've learned and adjusting your processes accordingly.

Large organizations have been tackling this problem forever. Really small organizations can do this with a "gut-check" by the company owner(s). And Information Technology is making BI more and more accessible for everyone in between.

That's where Peart-Hannon comes in. We were born out of an BI initiative in a large, global manufacturing corporation. We've learned to leverage that knowledge and expertise into a model that translates well into nearly any size organization.

In practical terms, BI to us means aggregating data from multiple sources throughout your organization, turning data into information. In order to have it mesh well with data from across the entire organization, then loading the data into efficient data stores (e.g. data warehouses, data marts). Finally, users interact with the data stores through well-designed reports, dashboards and scorecards so that the information can be used to make decisions that steer the organization towards its goals.
