Operating with a decentralized and real-time operational view of analytics requires scaling up analytics from the department to the enterprise. Scaling up requires building and managing the right platform to set standards for defining requirements, scoping, integrating IT, business units and vendors on to a common platform and building the right governance platform to monitor and report on the effectiveness of all initiatives.
Setting up a Analytics Program Management office enables companies to engage experts to manage the integration of the different processes and provide an operational platform for line managers to take data driven decisions based on analytical science.
