Abstract

The article represents the experience of practical application of visual analytics tools that allow to make deliberated and reasonable managerial decisions based on the visualization of large volume of information using Business Intelligence tools. The key feature of the pro-posed approach is the development of visual models of key performance indicators (KPI) at the strategic level of management of the enterprise. The developed models are considered as a tool for justification of managerial decisions, building business models of high-tech compa-nies, measuring the efficiency of functioning and evaluating the effectiveness of the develop-ment of the selected activities. The Business Intelligence tool was used to build a number of visual models for a high-tech enterprise in telecommunications. The novelty of the proposed approach lies in the application of intensively implemented in both Russian and Western companies performance management and management decision making technologies which are aimed at improving competitiveness, import substitution, cost reduction and optimiza-tion of business processes. The requirements of a dynamically changing environment, short-ening the products' life cycles, global competition with the necessity lead to create specialized visual situational business models built on the basis of powerful automated systems of busi-ness planning and graphics, data analysis and processing of information arrays.
