For effective decision making, your business users require quick, easy answers to off-the-cuff questions and a better understanding of your business, without extensive training and dependence on IT. Even more important, your users need fast access to relevant, decision-quality information anywhere in the enterprise. But that can be a tall order, as traditional business intelligence tools typically require a deep understanding of data structures or knowledge of how to build a query in order to ask interactive questions or generate ad hoc reports.

What's more, your IT team is being pulled in a million directions – facing an unmanageable workload, being asked to do more with less in an environment with rapidly changing business priorities.

SAP can help.
