Business Analytics

Business Analytics has been gaining a lot of importance and many successful IT service providers are recognizing it as a separate discipline. Business Analysis involves understanding the business scenario of the client along with As-Is and To-Be states. Once the roadmap is defined, the suggested solutions and IT interventions are planned and executed. Business Analysis helps clients understand and crystallize what they need from IT solution and manages the expectations. This also bridges the communication gap between clients / functional users and the technical development team. Business Analysis plays a vital role in effective requirement management and change management.

Business Analytics is a term that describes how organizations gather and interpret data in order to make better business decisions and to optimize business processes. Analytics are now regularly used in multiple areas, including sales, marketing, supply chain optimization, and fraud detection. Analytics may be used as input for managerial decisions. Business Analytics focuses on effective use of data and information to drive positive business actions. The body of knowledge for this area includes both business and technical topics, including concepts of performance management, definition and delivery of business metrics, data visualization, and deployment and use of technology solutions and analytic applications.

Analytics is dependent on data. If there is no data, there can be no analytics. For many organizations aspiring to be analytical competitors, the primary problem is not that they lack data. It is that they must contend with unnecessary data. Analysis is more effective when data is available from multiple sources. Organizations have traditionally underestimated the need for sophisticated IT. An organization that finds it has poor-quality data should postpone any plans to compete on analytics and instead should fix its data first.

Because the IT world changes so rapidly, many business analysts need to update their knowledge. Business analysis involves a set of well-defined skills and knowledge that combine topics from traditional business and IT disciplines.
