This week on the Key Figures Podcast, I am delighted to have Peter Clancy join us. Peter is a seasoned BI Project Manager and a Data Scientist. Armed with a degree as a mathematician and great with project estimations, Peter Clancy has an interesting view on how BI projects should be run.

We take a look at why companies should invest in BI and how to build a business case to convince the decision makers.

Peter then focuses on what the key elements are in a great BI system, zooming in on whether to use open source versus proprietary technology.

Many BI projects go wrong for a long list of reasons, with poor scoping being one of them. Peter guides us through the typical pitfalls in BI projects and he puts project management on the agenda. PM is time and time again, one the critical success factors in BI projects.

So what should you do after the solution goes into production? Should you invest in internal capacity or rather have external consultants manage this important process for you? I am glad Peter gives us his take on this.

I really enjoyed this episode on BI and project management.

So without further ado please enjoy this wide ranging discussion with Peter Clancy on how to manage BI projects.
