...Business Intelligence: Business intelligence (BI) is a technology-driven process for analyzing data and presenting actionable information to help corporate executives, business managers and other end users make more informed business decisions. Business intelligence tools are a type of application software designed to retrieve, analyze, transform and report data for business intelligence. The tools generally read data that have been previously stored, often, though not necessarily, in a data warehouse or data mart. BI Tools Analyzed: When preparing the analysis of the business intelligence tools, I made a personal preference of analyzing the tools leading in the Gartner chart, and that these tools must have efficient service and customer usage. The 5 business intelligence tools which I have selected are as follows: 1. IBM Cognos Link: http://www-01.ibm.com/software/analytics/cognos/ 2. Oracle BI 12c Link: http://www.oracle.com/us/solutions/business-analytics/business-intelligence/foundation-suite/overview/index.html 3.

It presents various definitions of the term “Business Intelligence” and determines that regardless the definition is a “means” to “end”, which sound business or organizational decision making, specifically in strategic planning and management. It also presents several important differentiation of Business Intelligence from data-centric technologies, and enterprise applications. It describes business intelligence architecture and its components. It identifies capabilities and benefits to be derive from it, barriers to its successful implementation, and critical success factors. It identifies BI software vendors, trends and forecast, and ethical considerations.

...concept of business intelligence and its use in business “BI is about turning data into information” (searchbusinessanalytics.techtarget.com/). The author gives an example that “…plotting spatial data onto a map is…[a] BI because it makes the data much more accessible to the user and therefore turns it into information.” (Ibid.). He adds, “BI systems are … very good at sifting through (and/or aggregating) huge volumes of data and turning it into information.” (Ibid.). (Turban 2013, p. 345) concurs, “BI systems are very good at filtering and aggregating huge data volumes into information.” With a business intelligence system, it is possible to summarize sales data for a region and assess the impact of a marketing campaign by product or by geographical area and present the same to users “on mashups.” (searchbusinessanalytics.techtarget.com/). The mention of mashups leads us to the issue of “business intelligence” systems “for the masses” on mobile devices (Turban 2013, p.349). Thus, with mobile and BI technologies respectively and concurrently, “mobile dashboards” have eased and popularized the implementation of “mobile intelligence.” (Ibid.). Today we have what would be called, “Mobile dashboard-supplied [business] intelligence” whereby data and information are accessible online, real-time, anywhere (Turban 249-350). With todays “visualization technologies…like “business dashboards, enterprise mashups, interactive reporting tools, and visualization apps for mobiles… data...

IT System for Vendor Management Software 6 3. IT system for Inventory Management/ Logistics 7 4. IT system for Business Intelligence / Analytics 8 Business Objective Keeping in mind that in future we could find stores where shoppers can browse the shelves in virtual reality, we came up with an idea for a startup which could give the future shoppers a rich digital shopping experience on the go. Internet of things will change how we shop, as well as how products are presented to us. As a pilot project we plan to set up “Virtual Grocery Store” in locations like metro stations where people can literally do their grocery shopping while waiting for trains. Taking an hour a week for grocery shopping can be a real drag for people residing in metro cities. So we devise a way to have the store come to people. The technology will give shoppers the power to make better buying decisions and eliminate some shopping irritations. The Business Model The walls are plastered with posters that resemble the aisles and shelves of a supermarket. They’re lined from top to bottom with the products you’d normally see while grocery shopping. The only difference is that you can’t just grab the product and check out. The groceries each have a QR code which the shopper scans...
