What is a success metric for a BI solution?

< 1 min read

A success metric measures whether a BI solution meets its intended business objectives.
It is quantifiable and tied to the project goal.
In one project, a success metric was “Reduce manual report generation time by 50%.”
Another metric was dashboard adoption rate among sales managers.
Metrics help evaluate the effectiveness and ROI of the solution.
As a BA, I define success metrics with stakeholders before development.
They guide testing, UAT, and post-implementation review.
Clear metrics ensure the BI solution delivers real business value.
