I am not sure whether it is the economic crisis focusing minds, or if there has been a turning point in the maturity of BI, but there seem to have been quite a few common-sense articles about the area recently. One I have just read is by Fei Luo at Information Management. The article may be read here.

Much of what Fei has to say chimes with my own experience of successfully driving change using BI in organisations. In particular, the observations about business involvement, having a strategy, regular business communication and the importance of training are all well-made.

  • Developing an international BI strategy
Having a strategy:
  • Holistic vs Incremental approaches to BI
Business communication:
  • Marketing Change
The importance of training:
  • Education and cultural transformation
  • BI and a different type of outsourcing

I was pleased to see these areas being drawn together in a single, cogent article.
