BI Maturity Levels

Increasingly, organizations are becoming more mature in their BI and data management. We see many organizations moving from manual data entry to interfaces, and to integration between applications. What is the BI maturity level of your organization? And how do you grow to the next level?

The new frontier is predictive analytics. With EPM and BI integrating, reaching this ultimate goal becomes a distinct possibility for many organizations. But maturing to the level of predictive analytics does require several different and sometimes complex steps. And the expertise to know which activities should be mastered before moving to the next BI maturity level.
