Business Intelligence

Business decision-making today relies heavily on software intelligence tools to analyze quantitative data. In fact, management theory itself is increasingly moving toward management by fact, using quantitative outcome metrics to inform strategic decisions. Yet, according to a recent article, "The increased use of the Internet as a medium for conducting business with customers and/or suppliers and business partners will require BI [Business Intelligence] to function in near real-time. BI based on human interpretation of results will not be responsive enough; much of the functionality has to be automated" (Business Insights Management Report, 2005)

Avum's own Intelligent Agent Framework facilitates the efficient categorization and retrieval of vast quantities of disparate and heterogeneous data with little human involvement, helping meet the market needs of organizations in a wide variety of sizable government and commercial sectors. The Intelligent Agent Framework is uniquely suited to modern business activity monitoring precisely because it reduces the required amount of human involvement through the use of autonomous agents.
