How to Harness Business Intelligence?
Data has always been an important asset for creating business strategies, planning resources, discovering possibilities, evaluating success, mitigating risks, etc. But being a business in the 2020s means dealing with loads and loads of raw data constantly pouring from all the channels and systems. Then, storing, analyzing, and utilizing it efficiently becomes a vital task.
That's when you may need a business intelligence services provider. Our BI and BA experts will assess your business needs to offer optimal BI solutions: pick and configure a ready-made platform, modernize your existing system, or build a new custom one.
We cover all the BI and analytics services, from building data infrastructure and setting data quality management to integrating business intelligence tools into the workflow with quality data visualization and reporting.
How Do Customers Benefit from Business Intelligence Services?
Businesses, particularly mid-sized and enterprise-level ones, will reap many benefits from an advanced BI implementation. Let's see how leveraging business intelligence enhances operational processes and secures steady growth.
Fully Leveraged Data
If configured and integrated correctly, enterprise BI systems make the most of your business data. Firstly, a business intelligence service provider handles BI data management, i.e., organizes and aggregates data from siloed/scattered data sources in a data warehouse, ensures safe data migration, and maintains data quality for accurate processing. Secondly, a business intelligence agency creates and customizes BI tools for effective data usage, from routine data tracking and creating reports to making complex prognoses.
Accurate Forecasting
Cutting-edge business intelligence tools allow for comprehensive data analysis, which takes the quality of insights gleaned and the accuracy of forecasts to a new level. With all historical and real-time data pieces being captured and processed, businesses improve their descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive analytics. In other words, they uncover trends and patterns better, get more precise in predicting business outcomes/user behavior/etc., and change strategies with stronger positive impact.
Effective Decisions
Every day, executives, managers, and team members make big and small decisions largely based on business analytics. Each decision, to some extent, affects major business goals. But to make sense of big data, you can't do without advanced data analytics. The essence of business intelligence solutions is exactly to facilitate data-informed decision-making.
Optimized Processes
A company equipped with a well-integrated BI solution can streamline its workflows on several levels. Advanced reporting and predictive analytics capabilities of BI tools help cut costs and time needed to complete data analytics tasks. Teams across an organization get more objective in assessing what actions are worth their while to reallocate funds and efforts. Finally, with all data put in order and available for all stakeholders, communication and collaboration inside teams and between departments gets faster and more transparent.
Mitigated Risks
Modern business intelligence technologies customized by BI experts give a comprehensive view of the current state of the org and crucial business insights into both opportunities and risks. For instance, robust predictive analytics tools aid in unraveling upward and downward demand trends. It, in turn, makes teams better at inventory planning.

FAQ on Business Intelligence Services
What are the three types of BI?
The first is descriptive analytics, focusing on aggregating and summing up historical data to highlight certain tendencies. The second is predictive analytics, using the same data to project possible future outcomes or trends. The third is prescriptive analytics, suggesting concrete actions based on data and predictions.
What is the difference between BI and BA?
Business intelligence is focused primarily on descriptive analysis, while business analytics deals with predictive and prescriptive analysis. However, when speaking about BI systems, we usually mean implementing both components.
What are business intelligence services?
BI services are meant to create, choose, or customize a BI tool/system to consolidate an org's data, safely store it, monitor trends and KPIs, create meaningful reports as well as make accurate forecasts.
Do I need a BI system?
Such a system puts all your data in order and improves decision-making at all levels, from managers to executives. So, all businesses and non-profits will take advantage of having some kind of BI tool.
Should I go for a ready-made or custom BI platform?
For SMBs, we suggest opting for an out-of-the-box product, as its capabilities should be sufficient for their use cases, given that professionals assist in selecting and configuring the tool. For enterprises, we advise deep customization or building a BI solution from the ground up so that it meets all requirements and can address specific business tasks.
