Get buy-in, alignment and participation to orchestrate change
Discovery is critical for gathering the information you need to execute on your organisation’s vision for analytics. The better you understand your organisation’s requirements, the better you will be able to proactively support the growth of analytics and the broad use of data. Valuable inputs from across the organisation will help to guide your analytics deployment and future state – including roles, responsibilities, architecture, processes and the success measurements needed to understand progress.
