Deploying Reporting SoftwareDeploying reporting or any other type of business intelligence software capability is a complex and difficult process that is often hard to standardize. Help in accomplishing this capability may come from a concept pioneered by the BI developer, Cognos. It is called the BI Competency Center and is based on three suppositions:· The deployment must connect to senior management, users, and vendors. · There must be adequate financial support from the CEO and CFO levels. · Appropriate staffing must be provided by the CIO function.
In order for the deployment to be successful and lead to financial and performance gains, the following observations apply: · The business reporting software must be used at every level of management. · The functional business areas served must be data driven (retail, multi-site, or vertically integrated manufacturing are examples.) · The functional engine must be provided from within the IT department. · Corporate executives must be the ultimate users.
