Abstract

Data warehousing can offer great potential for organizations. Nevertheless, implementing a data warehouse is a complex project that has caused difficulty for organizations. This paper presents the results of a study of four mature users of data warehousing technology. Collectively, these organizations have experienced many problems and solutions in relation to implementing data warehousing. These experience are captured in the form of ten organizational prerequisites for implementing data warehousing. The authors believe that this model could potentially be used by organizations to internally assess the likelihood of data warehousing project success, and to identify the areas that require attention prior to commencing implementation.
