Agile Business Intelligence: Increasing Adoption and Delivering Value, 10 Days At A Time

Presentation Summary

Jelena Roljevic and Margaret Roldan

In 2013, the GWU BI team had two firsts: pulling data from its financial ERP into the warehouse for the first time, and using an Agile Scrum methodology. The objective was to build an interactive dashboard for Principal Investigators to help them manage research grants more efficiently. This presentation will focus on how Agile helped the BI team deliver a solution that increased user adoption through constant engagement and timely feedback from end users. Lessons learned will be shared as well as the future of Agile at GWU.
