This book is about the process of using analytics and the
capabilities of analytics in today's organizations. Cutting through
the buzz surrounding the term analytics and the overloaded
expectations about using analytics, the book demystifies analytics
with an in-depth examination of concepts grounded in operations
research and management science. Analytics as a set of tools and
processes is only as effective as: The data with which it is
working The human judgment applying the processes and understanding
the output of these processes. For this reason, the book focuses on
the analytics process. What is intrinsic to analytics' real
organizational impact are the careful application of tools and the
thoughtful application of their outcomes. This work emphasizes
analytics as part of a process that supports decision-making within
organizations. It wants to debunk overblown expectations that
somehow analytics outputs or analytics as applied to other
concepts, such as Big Data, are the be-all and end-all of the
analytics process. They are, instead, only a step within a holistic
and critical approach to management thinking that can create real
value for an organization. To develop this holistic approach, the
book is divided into two sections that examine concepts and
applications. The first section makes the case for executive
management taking a holistic approach to analytics. It draws on
rich research in operations and management science that form the
context in which analytics tools are to be applied. There is a
strong emphasis on knowledge management concepts and techniques, as
well as risk management concepts and techniques. The second section
focuses on both the use of the analytics process and organizational
issues that are required to make the analytics process relevant and
impactful.
