Business Intelligence and Analytics: Overview and Offerings
Advisory Board research indicates that within specific terrains, what often separates the top one to three percent of performers from the top quartile—in other words, the truly great from the very good—is access to better, more timely, and more accurate information. In order to help organizations gain this kind of visibility into their performance, the Advisory Board has developed innovative Web-based business intelligence tools which provide members with real-time decision support, robust data collection, advanced analytical capabilities, and quantitative research.
The Advisory Board is currently sponsoring a series of ROI-driven research initiatives based upon the use of the aforementioned tools, along with best practice support and services. Through the discrete terrains listed below, we aspire to help individual hospitals and health systems transform their immense reservoirs of data into actionable information they can use to enhance performance, while simultaneously serving as research laboratories for best practice dissemination to a broader cohort of organizations.
