Discuss what challenges your selected organization might encounter in transitioning to the new environment; challenges such as organizational culture, skills, technologies including tools, as examples.

Option 1: Business Intelligence/Business Analytics Environment

You have been tasked with developing an approach for transitioning your organization, or an organization you are familiar with, from a “spreadsheet-driven” data analysis environment to a Business Intelligence (BI) environment which includes a Business Analytics (BA) function. Your approach should fulfill the following requirements:

• Discuss what benefits could the company realize from using a BI/BA environment.

• Discuss what challenges your selected organization might encounter in transitioning to the new environment; challenges such as organizational culture, skills, technologies including tools, as examples.

• Develop a system diagram displaying at a conceptual level, what the BI/BA environment would look like.

• Make the approach actionable. After reading your paper, the reader should not wonder what steps need to be undertaken to implement this approach.
