Reports and dashboards that utilize
historical data to gain insight are just the beginning of a
company's analytics journey. Advances in technology including
predictive capabilities can help organizations gain competitive

relationships in data and guide their next course of action. In the
past, predictive analytics has been the realm of statisticians and
other quantitative individuals and was often separated from BI
activities.
