Vice President of Enterprise Business Intelligence at Dell, James Franklin, described the role that BI plays at Dell. He said, “Business intelligence is vital to Dell and is a critical piece of helping us better anticipate and meet the desires of our customers, driving efficiencies, and gaining critical insights. Teradata provides an important enabling technology that helps us understand what has happened, but more importantly what is likely to happen as we forecast future business patterns for our customers and business processes.”
