Whitby Partners - Driving Value from Business Intelligence

We are a time of significant change for many IT organisations, with outsourcing and off-shoring activity at a high level. It is imperative that the impact of these changes on the BI organisation and its ability to deliver the required value to the business is fully assessed and understood.

BI Organisational Design and Reviews
We will work with you to review, measure and, where appropriate, refine the design of your BI Organisation. We will utilise the Organisation tools within BI Exploitation Best Practice to analyse and measure where the strengths and weaknesses in your current organisation and processes lie, propose changes and then help you implement them.

The scope of our Organisational Reviews can encompass:

BI Governance
BI Service Authority
BI Service Organisation
BI Sustenance

We aim to help you answer the following questions:

What is our current organisation and process?
What are its strengths and weaknesses?
How do we compare against the Best Practice BI Organisational Model?
How do we benchmark in this area and where are the gaps?
Where do the key organisational interfaces lie?
How are these interfaces managed and controlled?
Looking forward, what are the key risks we should be considering?
What are the key areas we should be focusing on?
What changes should we be making?
Where do we need to revise our metrics?
What are the priorities?
How do we socialise the changes proposed?

The deliverables will be in a business language and employ tools to quickly and clearly communicate the issues, implications and needs to key stakeholders. Where appropriate they will include detailed organisational and process design.
