Business Intelligence (BI) & Data Usage Culture

What is Data?

Data is anything stored in our minds, on paper, in computers, mobile devices, software, or web pages.

Why Data Matters

Humans live in the “Information Age,” where life revolves around data. Converting data into actionable information drives business success and growth.

What is Data Culture?

Effectively using data requires understanding its culture. Data culture can be described in four key stages:

1. Identifying Needed Data

Essential data includes customer details, services or product information, registrations, sales invoices, and financial records. Identifying these at the start and during business operations is crucial.

2. Storing Data

Traditional methods like paper records or receipts are inefficient. Modern solutions like Varzesh Soft’s integrated software store data securely and manage club operations efficiently.

3. Processing Data (Business Intelligence / BI)

Raw data must be processed and connected with parameters like time. BI tools transform data into valuable insights, showing Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) through charts, tables, and graphs quickly and accurately.

4. Using Data for Decision-Making (BA)

After gaining insights from BI, managers can make informed decisions to drive the business toward excellence and growth.

  2. Storing Data: Using integrated software like Varzesh Soft for data management.

  3. Processing Data: Displaying KPIs in charts, tables, and graphs with drill-down features for quick and accurate insights.
