Episode 18: The Evolution of Business Intelligence
Guest: Robin Wilkinson
It turns out that Business Intelligence (BI), as a concept, has been around since 1865! Back then it was a manual paper and pencil process, but it still enabled one business to prevail over its competitors by making better data driven decisions. Today we are dealing with massive amounts of data, technology has evolved tremendously, and people have evolved too!
In this episode Robin Wilkinson, who is the General Manager of QueBIT’s Business Intelligence and Data Management practice, gives us a BI history lesson and takes us through how the process of implementing and deploying BI has evolved though the years. The conversation includes some great specific examples, and lots of great best practice advice for BI success. Among many other things, Robin points out that today everyone wants results quickly, so the focus needs to be one delivering BI solutions in days or weeks, not months or years.
