Business Intelligence Roadmap is a visual guide to developing an effective business intelligence
(BI) decision-support application. This book outlines a methodology that takes into account the
complexity of developing applications in an integrated BI environment. The authors walk
readers through every step of the process-from strategic planning to the selection of new
technologies and the evaluation of application releases. The book also serves as a single-source
guide to the best practices of BI projects.
Part I steers readers through the six stages of a BI project: justification, planning, business
analysis, design, construction, and deployment. Each chapter describes one of sixteen
development steps and the major activities, deliverables, roles, and responsibilities. All
technical material is clearly expressed in tables, graphs, and diagrams.
Part II provides five matrices that serve as references for the development process charted in
Part I. Management tools, such as graphs illustrating the timing and coordination of activities,
are included throughout the book. The authors conclude by crystallizing their many years of
experience in a list of dos, don'ts, tips, and rules of thumb. The panying CD-ROM
includes plete, customizable work breakdown structure.
