Justin Short of Contemporary outlines how second generation business intelligence is set to revolutionise information delivery and accessibility.

Coming back for seconds - Part 1 | Part 2

Business intelligence (BI) has developed in leaps and bounds in recent years to sharpen the reactions of the modern enterprise.

It enables information to be represented intelligibly through graphics and analytics, allowing the user to quickly make influential decisions on actual business data.

Compare second generation BI to the contemporary supermarket experience. A growing number of shoppers no longer even set foot in the store – all their shopping is delivered to their doors.
