What is Data Analytics & Business Intelligence?

Data Analytics is the science of collecting, cleaning and analysing raw, unstructured data to detect patterns, behaviours and trends, turning it into valuable insights. Business Intelligence (BI), on the other hand, focuses on using those insights – structured data – to support decision-making.

Together, these fields provide businesses with real-time insights and dashboards to improve decision-making and drive growth. Therefore, Data Analytics & Business Intelligence as a service can unfold into:

  • Data Analytics: dashboards, data visualisation, and reporting.
  • Business Intelligence: advanced analytics platforms (Power BI, Tableau, Looker).
  • Self-service Analytics: data accessibility to empower business teams.

This service is especially useful for decision-makers seeking data-driven insights, companies struggling with manual reporting, or organisations needing predictive analytics.
