| Business Intelligence Project Planning & ROI Assessment Service |
To be more competitive, to expand into new markets, and to improve customer service - businesses need to effectively extract, consolidate and analyze their business data in order to develop intelligent insights into their business. Thanks to the flexible and robust systems in today's corporate environments, there is no limit to the amount of data available to companies. The challenge is how best to combine all the data from all the diverse sources into a multi-dimensional "whole" and capitalize on it to drive the management insights and actionable information to improve decision making, and to achieve business goals.
The answer to this challenge is a well thought-out, business intelligence (BI) solution geared towards spotting trends, penetrating new markets and enhancing customer relationships. The following diagram provides a high level overview of the different layers that comprise a typical enterprise-wide BI deployment architecture.

Nrit Scope/BI service offering, a BI Project Planning and ROI Assessment Service, can help you design a BI solution that will collect data from all the diverse sources in your organization (financial, sales, inventory) and transform it into valuable business information. It can also help justify or build a case for the BI initiative by providing an estimate of the ROI. Nrit Scope/BI is an unique assessment methodology used to identify key business drivers, evaluate technical and data architecture and understand organizational structure. The Nrit Scope/BI engagement concentrates on the following critical areas:
 |
Requirements Definition - identifies all crucial facets of your BI vision and strategy including the critical success factors and business drivers. |
|
Data Source Assessment - identifies the data sources needed to support the requirements identified above. |
| |
Technical Gap Analysis - compares your BI requirements with your current IT environment and data sources. |
|
BI Tools and Database Evaluation - selects the best-practice analytic tool(s) based on your requirements and IT infrastructure. |
|
ETL Analysis - determines and documents data movement processes based on the requirements identified and BI tools recommended in preceding steps. |
|
Solution Design - we design and recommend the best solution for your organization, based on the previous steps outlined above. |
|
Business Policy/Process Impact Assessment - we review your current business processes and assess how they will be affected by any new functionality or architectural changes that are a part of the proposed solution. |

"This multi-step assessment process is designed to provide you with our specialists' evaluation of your current systems and processes, and to assist in identifying the level of effort that will be required for the proposed BI solution. A detailed analysis in each of these areas will be required during the actual implementation project itself."

Our assessment ensures you have everything in place to support a successful BI solution. An assessment offering anything less puts your enterprise at risk. Upon completion of the assessment, all findings are consolidated into a comprehensive Nrit Scope/BI Road Map report. The BI Road Map will provide you with a high-level project plan that includes cost estimates, timelines, resource requirements and team profiles. This will enable you to proceed with confidence whether you choose to take advantage of our considerable expertise, use another company, or even decide to go it alone. |
Caveat: Throughout the Nrit Scope/BI engagement, we conduct structured interviews of key individuals who have responsibility for, and will be impacted by, the BI solution. We must have access to your senior management when we need them, to ensure success of the Nrit Scope/BI project engagement. |
