Strategic Deployment of Business Intelligence Technology
DAYTON, OH, November 15, 2004 - LexisNexis U.S., a leading provider of legal, news and business information services, announced today it has been recognized by Business Intelligence Perspectives -- a new conference owned by Computerworld -- as a one of the winners of the “Best Practices in Business Intelligence” Awards Program.
The award honors organizations that have applied exemplary business intelligence solutions to provide strategic advantage to their enterprise. Applicants were judged on their organization’s ability to manage their business intelligence environment as they would an operational environment through activities such as managing systems, implementing help desk procedures and enhancing BI applications.
LexisNexis was recognized for its business intelligence data warehouse, developed in conjunction with Teradata, a division of NCR. The data warehouse allows the company to conduct sophisticated marketing campaigns, obtain a single view of customer data, and develop detailed analysis of customer fees and pricing. Due to the success of the LexisNexis data warehouse, internal use has tripled in two years.
"Computerworld is proud to recognize these award winners for their excellence in the many facets that make up an effective business intelligence strategy," said Ron Milton, executive vice president, Strategic Programs at Computerworld. "Today’s highly competitive and volatile business environment creates unique challenges for enterprises to implement vision, calculate risk and streamline costs, and the best practices showcased at Business Intelligence Perspectives will set new standards towards meeting these challenges head on."
