A Journey to the Digital Frontier Business Intelligence. One of the great advantages of digital is its ability to drive meaningful data onto business intelligence (BI) platforms. Digital transformation can help an enterprise to make faster and better decisions, including proactive approaches. As well, BI can function across businesses units, and even incorporate business partners. The result is a faster, more iterative approach to business, in which the customer is well understood, and held close. BI foments new ideas, and provides opportunity for previously unforeseen innovation.
