    This presentation is a soup-to-nuts methodology for business intelligence and data warehousing applications. The methodology is based on the concept of iterative development and continuous refinement, deploying applications in incremental software releases. It provides a step-by-step guide through the engineering stages of justification, planning, analysis, design, construction, and deployment specifically designed for business intelligence and data warehouse applications.

    The content of the methodology is presented as a framework of 16 development steps. Each development step begins with a list of things to consider, then highlights the major activities, and concludes with deliverables, and roles and responsibilities of project team members. This presentation will show participants how to select the right activities from the right development steps to create a customized work breakdown structure that is appropriate for their project.
