The Problem:
Information that was meant to support decision-making arrives too late—because of dispersed data sources, duplicated reports, and slow analytical processes.
Teams build their own workarounds because the central data platform can’t keep up with business needs. IT becomes an increasing cost center, and decisions are made based on incomplete or outdated data.
Sound familiar?
- Why doesn’t the marketing department have access to sales data from another system?
- Why does it take two weeks to get a new report?
- Why is the finance team building its own analytics solution instead of using the corporate data warehouse?
- Why does every data warehouse project end up over budget and behind schedule?
