Business Analytics
With exponential growth in both structured and unstructured information, increasing number of companies are basing their critical business decisions on analytical insights. With ever-increasing competition in the market place, more and more business leaders are realizing that business analytics is the way to go to remain competitive in their business.
Estimated at a size of over $100 billion, business analytics as a business is likely to grow at near double digit rates in the immediate future. While we foresee more and more companies jump into this market to provide their services, we also foresee that the end customers (i.e. direct business) will turn more positive to analytics initiatives in-house and an increasing number of their day to day tactical operations will be backed by analytics insights. In this new era, business units will be more demanding and IT units have to work hand-in-glove with businesses to stay ahead and meet their overall business objectives.
