Agile Business Intelligence
Business Intelligence (BI) is still a growing area of interest for most companies, as a result of

approaches do not work effectively when implementing BI. Agile programming concepts are now
being applied to BI solution delivery, supported by a new breed of tools that enable rapid
user-focused development.

This includes an assessment of existing BI solutions and capabilities, and identification of opportunities to deliver improved BI solutions and capabilities.
