As the amount of information collected throughout an enterprise grows, so does the need for solutions that maximize the value that information adds to the organization. In fact, according to a recent survey by Gartner, strengthening the ‘information value chain’ is one of the three critical challenges that CIOs see themselves facing in 2006.1 That worldwide survey of 1,400 CIOs by Gartner Executive Programmes (EXP) identifies business intelligence applications as the number one technology priority (Source: Gartner EXP, January 2006).
Therefore, it is not surprising that business intelligence (BI) software has attracted attention from a crowd of vendors, each claiming to offer the best solution.
To help cut through the clutter of conflicting and overstated vendor claims, SAS has developed a comprehensive framework that can be used to evaluate any and all BI vendors. Using criteria that are crucial to the success of your BI implementation, the evaluation framework includes measures of:
- Technology (comprehensive BI platform and advanced analytics).
- Alignment with customer needs (organizational reach and customer commitment).
- Corporate vision and geographic scope.
