Abstract
Big data and analytics cross traditional boundaries among performance improvement, information technology, and data science. While more established in other disciplines, big data and analytics are a looming reality for performance improvement practitioners. Targeted to beginners to big data and performance improvement alike, this highly interactive session will share the results of a systematic literature review that identified innovative approaches and lessons learned. Participants will then use a case study activity to create a draft proposal for using big data to address a performance gap.

During this session participants will:
  • Identify organizational readiness indicators that support use of big data and analytics.
  • Draft a plan for using big data to address a performance gap.
