Business Intelligence Project

This course is designed to give you an introduction to technologies used for business analytics. It provides a managerial perspective to the business analytics continuum beginning with descriptive analytics, moving on to predictive analytics, prescriptive analytics, and finally Big Data.

For this project, you will start by describing a hypothetical business in which you are a manager or owner. As we progress through the chapters of this book, you will add sections to this project describing ways the information in the text could be applied to your business. There will be specific and separate instructions for each chapter.

First, define the business, give details:

1. Identify the business you will use throughout this course and choose a name for the business.
2. Write a page about the business you are choosing, why this is your choice, and what products or services the business provides.
3. Create the setting details for the business.
4. Describe the characteristics of the business

• How large is the business? How many employees?
• Is it brick & mortar, online, or both?
• What is the primary purpose of the business?
• Is it National, Local, or Global?
