3. What is Business Intelligence
(Analytics)
A set of tools, technologies, theories,
methodologies, procedures to
transform raw data (usually from
operational applications) into
meaningful and useful information for
business purposes (decision making,
statutory reporting)
BI leads to:
o fact-based decision making
o “single version of the truth”

4. Information – the most valuable asset
While CIOs are aware that effective information
management results in faster decision-making,
most organizations struggle with their initiatives
around data governance, data integration,
data quality, master data management and
data virtualization.
Effective usage of tools and processes with
availability of right services can help
organizations derive great benefits from its most
valuable asset

5. Benefits of Information Mgmt.
Consolidating and propagating accurate master
data can
o reduce operational costs,
o increase supply chain and selling efficiencies,
o improve customer loyalty, and
o support sound corporate governance.
Priorities like business analytics, business applications,
and Big Data, will not reach their full potential
without top-notch information management that
integrates business and IT efforts
