Business intelligence should be seen as a business initiative and a business ownership venture. It is - and always should be - about making correct business decisions in not only an improved faster and manner, but also to ensure that it adds value to all business processes. Previously, IT departments operated as part of the company, delivering solutions to the business as soon as possible and with user requirements as the key driver. Today, however, IT departments have started to operate like independent companies within a company, ones that want to make as much money as possible, stretch the work out as long as possible and have business pay for extras that have no immediate benefit to the BI initiative. The truth is that IT departments are taking over the BI initiatives, or in some cases, they are hijacking it. Although this may be a harsh statement, the reality is that data warehouse projects are failing because they are not delivering business requirements on time and within budget and are not end-user focused anymore.
