Andrew Hoyle: Founder of Imperium Business Intelligence Ltd
​
I have been blessed throughout my career to have been involved with some amazing institutions ranging from SME’s to top tier accountancy firms and investment banks.
The one component that is constant across all industries is the importance of data, whether they realise it or not. I have seen huge losses continuously occur, companies close where owners have gone with “gut” feel and material opportunities missed due to the correct data not being available in time.
Ultimately, the foundations for correct decision making are very simple and require just two pillars
1) A well implemented business intelligence system
2) A culture that embraces and values the importance of data
Implementation: Each Entity is unique. As a qualified accountant, I.T developer and Microsoft Partner, I have seen a large percentage of system implementations fail or not tick the box. This is due to accountants understanding what is required but not having the IT skillset to implement and IT professionals having the correct IT skillset but not the financial background to understand what is required. Addressing this issue was one of the main reasons for the founding of IMPERIUM BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE LTD.
Data Culture: Even with the best business intelligence system in the world, if the company does not use it, then it is of no value. At IMPERIUM BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE LTD, we continuously aim to ensure that users understand the importance of business intelligence and how it can add value from the cleaner to the CEO. This is achieved through initial and ongoing training, both simple and in-depth reporting tools and bespoke solutions. All stakeholders are updated of how their decisions impact the organisation as a whole.
