What happened?
Get in touch with reality, a single source of the truth
- Standard reporting - Ad hoc reporting - Query/drill-down - Dashboarding,
visualization
How many, how often, where?
What will happen?
Understand the most likely future scenario, and its business implications
- Simulation
- Advanced forecasting models
- Predictive modeling
How are market or business trends likely to change? Can we develop a better forecast? What should we do about it? Collaborate for maximum business value, informed by advanced analytics - Multi-factor optimization - Trade-off analysis - Automated, collaborative business process execution - Role-based alerting
Given best information and predictive models, what actions should we employ to manage multiple constraints, variability, risk? 7
