Readiness Assessments for Business Intelligence Initiatives

Collegiate Project Services’ best-in-class planning and assessment services have helped institutions across the nation reduce risk and increase the likelihood of a successful planning, selection, and implementation process.  Institutions who participate in our Readiness Assessments for Business Intelligence Initiatives services will be better equipped with the tools and information necessary to ensure they are fully prepared for their Business Intelligence (BI) initiatives.  Our BI expert spends time on campus interacting with key personnel and collecting information that allows us to help the institution define, organize, staff, budget, and plan the Business Intelligence initiative.

Our BI Planning Services will help you:

• Define Project Scope
• Identify Realistic Project Costs
• Develop Project Staffing Strategies
• Establish a Project Timeline
• Identify Potential Risks & Preventive Strategies
• Develop  Project Communication and Training Plans

“Hiring an objective, vendor-neutral third party firm experienced in BI planning and implementation has been a critical step in our Business Intelligence journey.”

The CPS Difference

The assessment gathers data through individual interviews, group sessions, and the review of provided documentation.   The information gathered provides the data for assessing the institution on 30 different Business Intelligence readiness factors. These factors are organized into three major groupings:   

1. Technical, Institutional Research, and BI Infrastructure Readiness (11 factors)
2. Functional, Project, and Resource and Effort Awareness  (9 factors)
3. Cultural Readiness (10 factors)
