ABSTRACT:
During good times there is often enough slack in the system to allow bad decisions (or missed opportunities) to be forgiven or even pass unnoticed. But when times are tough, a bad decision or missed opportunity can mean the end of your business. In this timely and informative whitepaper from TIBCO Spotfire, Dr. Mark Whitehorn of PenguinSoft Consulting Ltd. provides answers to questions such as:

  • Will business intelligence (BI) serve you as well during today's leaner times?
  • What type of BI is best suited to a rockier economic climate?
  • How do you build a BI system that enables any business user in your organization to actively interrogate, not just passively report on, your data?
