Business Intelligence (BI)

  • Raising The Bar

    When I recently tried to reminisce about favorite "Love Boat" episodes with a co-worker who is about 10 years younger than me, I received a look of bewilderment.

  • Multiple Choice

    The past year was one of struggle and experimentation in consumer goods companies' use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), with lingering standards, product immaturity, cost and return on investment issues clouding the ability to reach Wal-Mart's January 2005 mandate.

  • Rules of Attraction

    In trade promotions management technology, integrated analytics tools that provide for precise tracking of promotions dollars are currently drawing the most attention from consumer goods (CG) companies, analysts say.

  • Seal The Deal

    Usually, discussion and analysis of a particular subject is a matter of bringing in a number of viewpoints, weighing them and making a case for the most likely futures.

  • Making an Impact

    How to drive value from integration, forecasting and new product development

  • Soft Return

    Last month, AMR Research humbly pointed out that its prediction in RFID spending for Wal-Mart's Top 100 suppliers was off its mark.

  • New Tools on The Block

    Technology that helps consumer goods (CG) manufacturers manage promotions and get a clearer picture of consumers who use their products are the hot CRM items of the moment, say analysts, who also predict expanding investment in CRM technology by CG companies in 2005.

  • Knowledge is Power

    Business Intelligence (BI) wasn't the hottest topic of conversation amongst IT types in 2004, and to be perfectly honest, it likely won't be the belle of the ball in 2005 either.
