Program Synopsis:
IT savvy firms have 20 percent higher
margins than their competitors.[1]
By definition, IT savvy firms build and use a platform of
digitized processes that provides capabilities of data,
analytics, and information-based services. BI is a critical
enabler for IT savvy firms, as evidenced by recent practitioner
literature. Gartner found in both 2008 and 2009 that BI was at
the top of many CIOs’ strategic agendas. Even in today's tough
economic climate, IDC forecasted 3.45% growth for the $23
billion market for BI software in 2009, and they expected 2%
growth in the $45 billion BI consulting business. BI has moved
from being a contributor to organizational success to being a
prerequisite for it; indeed, for many firms, BI is a
prerequisite for even competing in the marketplace. This program
will feature four industry experts who will demonstrate how
organizations can create an analytical capability that enables
them to routinely make better decisions in every aspect of their
business.
