“Improving Organizational Performance through Business Intelligence and Data Analytics: A Case Study of [Selected Organization]”

Students will select an organisation of their choice. (This could be the
organisation they work for.
Taking the role of an external Consultant, they will be required to
conduct a performance review of the organisation and will submit a 2500-word
report that will critically review and evaluate a chosen area of interest,
department, or sector.
The report will include the design and a deployment plan for a business
intelligence/data analytics system (using appropriate data analytics software).
Secondary data sources will be used to direct the analysis as well as
frame the problem/opportunity
statement regarding the case company.

is no expectation that students should collect primary data.
As part of the written assignment, students will be required to develop
a decision support dashboard for the organisation.

analytics software and should be submitted separately using Blackboard.

formative feedback to students.
