Purpose and Objectives<br>
05
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE Business intelligence is about effectively managing critical data assets and its transformation into information in such a way that drives strategic planning, executive decision-making, and management reporting throughout your organization.
Thus, data drives our need to be well-informed.
The statement of purpose is about pursuing continuous improvement to be well-informed, to provide self-servicing of information on the desktop, and positively effect decision support at all levels of the organization.<br>
06
CASE STUDIES Grants Post-Award office spent routinely up to two weeks, sometime longer, to data enter and reconcile grants in QuickBooks and compile reports to send to Principal Investigators.
Business Managers ran multiple PeopleSoft reports and queries daily, data enter into QuickBooks, to reconcile accounts and summarize information into reports for Deans and Chairs.
Budget and Planning Office spent most of time in data entry mode for Budget Prep instead of analyzing the data; lacked ability to track position funding changes during the year and unable to provide personal service changes to department managers.<br>
07
FACTOID With over 600 local public queries plus hundreds of private ones to choose from or model from more than 300+ BOR delivered queries, pulling data from PeopleSoft can be somewhat challenging for most users to navigate which on occasion results in…well, you know<br>

11
KSU COMMON CHALLENGES ERPs lack robust reporting tools and analytics
Queries are hard to learn and very often require exporting to Excel for further aggregation and analyses
Shadows systems proliferate as a means to track and reconcile accounts for business managers and grants post-award office
Information not easily shared and data not securely distributed
Inability to obtain revenue, expenditure, and budget data at multiple organizational levels Budget managers were being held accountable but lacked adequate tools to track budgets and spending
PeopleSoft terminology oftentimes misunderstood – what’s in pre-encumbrance as opposed to an encumbrance? Why should I care?
Inability to set aside/reserve funds for future spending and have it reflected in remaining balances<br>
