It equips business users with relevant information to perform various analyses to make key business decisions. Over the last two decades, BI has become a core strategy for the growth of many companies, in particular large corporations. However, studies show that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) lag behind in implementation and exploitation of BI solutions. To stay ahead of the competition, SMEs must be able to monitor and effectively use all of their resources, in particular information resources, to assist them in making important business decisions. We have examined the challenges such as lack of technical expertise and limited budget when implementing a BI solution within an SME in the UK. In light of our experiences in tackling these issues, this seminar discusses how these challenges can be overcome through applying various tools and strategies and the potential benefits.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Luca<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>-- <br><div class="m_1196026580187264959gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Luca Rossi</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Lecturer in Computer Science</div><div dir="ltr">School of Engineering and Applied Science</div><div dir="ltr">Aston University</div><div dir="ltr">Web: <a href="http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~rossil/" target="_blank">http://www.cs.aston.ac.<wbr>uk/~rossil/</a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
