Abstract

Over last few years Data Warehouse (DW) has emerged as the core of the Business Intelligence (BI) infrastructure for many forward-looking organizations. It is often complemented by Business Performance Management (BPM) and workflow management tools for operationalizing of strategic and tactical decisions and tracking progress of activities across the organization. However, till now there is not much support available to the decision-makers to leverage "organizational experience" i.e., the past events, corresponding responses made as well as their respective impacts, to guide him/her in the decision-making process. In this paper a conceptual BI framework, the Reference-Activity-Projection (RAP) is proposed. RAP is designed to support the decision-making process through a systematic access mechanism to organizational experience. RAP uses along with standard BI tools and techniques, the emerging technologies such as complex event processing (CEP), unstructured/semi-structured data mining, social network analysis etc.
