| Driving ROI from your BI investment
The cost of implementing a BI solution can be counted in the price of the software and the time and effort it takes to clean and structure data, build reports and train staff to use the system. How, when and how big a return the business gets on this investment depends on the planning and strategic goal-setting that precedes and accompanies implementation and roll-out. BI today delivers much more than reports, it includes scorecards, performance management and dashboards, helping not only individuals make faster, more informed decisions but also increasing visibility and accountability to assist organisations to better manage business performance. However, enabling this functionality means the data and process foundation that feeds it needs to be carefully created, which may entail some housecleaning.

Matt Skelton keen to get job done
The Bedford fighter avenged his solitary loss against Danny Williams in July 2006 before outpointing old opponent Michael Sprott in a dreadful Commonwealth title clash at London's O2 Arena on his last outing in July. Skelton may not be pretty to watch, but he is very hard to beat. The same, however, could be said of Chagaev, the man known as "White Tyson" who deposed the 7ft 4in Russian Nikolai Valuev to seize the WBA belt last April. Relatively small for a modern heavyweight, Chagaev has excellent skills and a sturdy chin and will start a clear favourite on Saturday night. Sanders is unconvinced by the champion's credentials, and suggests there are question marks over Chagaev's stamina which Skelton will exploit. "Matt doesn't drink or smoke and is an absolute gem to train," he said.
