Business Intelligence: The Truth to Tell	Version: 1 Submitted Date: 2006/9/8
Description: BILL INMON COINED the term �data warehouse� in 1990, essentially referring to a coherent and stable collection of data around particular subjects, not a company�s ongoing operations. Data could be added but not removed. And management were able to gain a consistent picture of the business � one version of the truth! For many people, good data management practice is now a given. It is the foundation you have to put in place before you can even consider turning data into information to support any decision-making processes. Yet I never cease to be amazed by the number of organisations I visit who are unable to obtain a consistent view of their data. Why is that? Keywords: Knowledge, Data, Management, Information, Analysis

There is no point attempting to draw all kinds of nice graphs etc. if you don't know what you are reporting on, or if you don't know the data structure you are reporting from. End of story!
