Within the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

Knowledge (analytics), information (reporting), and facts (data) form the basis of business intelligence (BI). Although many service organizations (nonprofits) are developing core competencies in one or more of these key areas, it takes a true organization-wide commitment and approach to achieve the benefits of business intelligence and data-driven decision making.

A rapidly-growing service organization (e.g., a nonprofit organization) has hired you as a consultant. Your task is to build a data warehouse and the foundational aspects of its BI program. You have your first meeting with the head of the service organization, and you must discuss the following topics (as well as provide examples to support your explanations):

• Explain the theoretical framework behind the effort of building a data warehouse and establishing the foundations for a BI program. Make sure your response describes the framework that you found in your research.
• Explain how the data warehousing process can be a driving force behind the organization’s new BI program.

Your response should be 400–600 words, plus sources, and repeating the questions does not count toward the total word count.
