Abstract
Business Intelligence[BI] is an evolving technology that helps manage information. BI helps to convert Information to Knowledge which can be used to make effective and efficient business decisions. This will give the organization a competitive edge in the market. Retail Industry is a sector which would hugely benefit from BI due to the large amount of information flow in a retail industry. But the BI implementation failure rate is 50% which leads to a lot of resource,time and money waste. The goal of this paper would be to define a set of best practices that will suit the BI implementation in almost all organizations in the retail segment.
