Good document
A must have in your reference library for all BI development teams and PMS!
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :0
This book is a must have for all PMs and development teams undertaking BI/DW! The authors are thorough in covering key aspects of the BI project (in terms that all resources understand) and outlining the team composite, approach and process to follow to accomplish the development of BI.
The CD in the back contains a detailed project plan that lays out all segments of the DW/BI product development lifecycle and outlying contingent work areas(a godsend when doing start ups for BI development). Modify and go is a lot simpler than starting from scratch in my book and I have authored a lot of technical project plans! I have used this book in the course of my career over and over, as have many of my counterparts, and I highly recommend it!
Great reference

Ive never found these type of books all that useful (certainly not something you read cover to cover), but this one does have great organization and an emphasis on the project management aspect (not just some techie jibber jabber which is out of date in a year).
I use it mostly to help me clarify with sr. management why our BI department is doing what its doing, expected benefits and risks. It helps explain why it is important to do all the ground work. Even if we arent given time and resources to do it, it helps me keep my eye on the ball, not lose sight of objectives, and work in good best practices whenever possible.
I would definitely recommend this book to someone who is entrenched in BI projects on a regular basis.
Great for a PM

Am currently in the process of executing a DW/BI project, my background is JAVA application Project management. This book has been great in getting me upto speed on the basic architecture and lingo of BI/DW.
Book lays out step by step the different parts to a DW. The front office, the back office, meta data repository. Highlights how DW/BI phases are different from other application dev phases. It doesnt go into how to do data modelling - for this get the lifecycle toolkit. But it gives a great overview of planning a BI/DW initiative. Much better than the pure Project Management books.
To get a complete picture Id use this book along with the Toolkit book.
Excellent book - for beginners...

The author has well organized the contents, and provided a clear explanation of each of the topics (each topic is a step/phase in the overall BI implementation methodology).... Has a project plan template also...
Good book for beginners in Data warehousing / BI.
