Discuss, detail and present your perspective on the following (Use your own selected company):

Detail the value add of business intelligence to the company

Could there be any possible negative impacts of business intelligence on decision making processes?

Explain the three forms of data-mining analysis and explain how your company can use it to gain BI? (Refer to LO 8.2)

Give examples of how the company can use tactical, operational, and strategic BI? (use the Figure B10.1 and chart this). I need to see either a table or flow chart format - as in the chapter

What types of ethical and security issues could a company face while using BI tools and data? List these in bullets to bring out the clarity and explain briefly

Please make sure (while I ask questions – to guide you) I need your work in an essay format NOT Q&A. You could use topic titles like Introduction, Negative Impacts, Data Mining etc.

Your answers should be precise, detailed and clear. I will be looking for your understanding of the material in terms of content, clarity and focus.

Use Paragraphs, bullets, charts etc. to present your work professionally. I have very low tolerance for spelling and grammatical errors (easily corrected in a word document)

Cite all sources. Remember that I need to see BOTH intext and end citations in APA format. Turnitin will show complete match of all material.

Write only in a word document and submit using the link

Refer to LO 8.2：
