The Business Intelligence (BI) Value Proposition tool kit is an aid designed to help organizations that are considering implementing a BI platform. This tool should help identify the true costs and benefits associated with a typical BI implementation. BI implementations are still mainly strategic in nature and, thus, can make the development of a true ROI and business case difficult. Nonetheless, many proposed BI projects will never gain the approval and support required without a well constructed value proposition. This toolkit was designed to help consider all financial aspects of a BI implementation. In other words, do not feel compelled to have a value for every input box.
If you use this tool and can provide constructive feedback that would help further develop this model, please email us.
