This project reviewed WIC Competent Professional Authority (CPA) training programs for paraprofessionals across the United States to identify programs that could be used or modified for use by WIC state agencies in the Western Region. A survey was conducted of 82 WIC state agencies and other USDA food assistance programs to evaluate their training programs. Eight programs were identified for in-depth review and were found to have the strongest potential for immediate use by Western Region states. The recommendations indicate that distance or online education is the most practical and cost-effective method for delivering CPA training. Collaboration between states could help realize cost savings, but would require strategic planning to address issues regarding compatibility and content delivery.

Difference in Differences - Does Strict Speed Limit Restrictions Reduce Road ...ThinkInnovation
Objective
To identify the impact of speed limit restrictions in different constituencies over the years with the help of DID technique to conclude whether having strict speed limit restrictions can help to reduce the increasing number of road accidents on weekends.
Context*
Generally, on weekends people tend to spend time with their family and friends and go for outings, parties, shopping, etc. which results in an increased number of vehicles and crowds on the roads.
Over the years a rapid increase in road casualties was observed on weekends by the Government.
In the year 2005, the Government wanted to identify the impact of road safety laws, especially the speed limit restrictions in different states with the help of government records for the past 10 years (1995-2004), the objective was to introduce/revive road safety laws accordingly for all the states to reduce the increasing number of road casualties on weekends
* The Speed limit restriction can be observed before 2000 year as well, but the strict speed limit restriction rule was implemented from 2000 year to understand the impact
Strategies
Observe the Difference in Differences between ‘year’ >= 2000 & ‘year’ <2000

DEFINING BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE
Business intelligence is the process of gathering high-quality and meaningful information about the
subject matter being researched that will help the individual(s) analysing the information, draws
conclusions or make assumptions.
Business intelligence refers to the use of technology to collect and effectively use information to
improve business effectiveness. An ideal BI system gives an organization's employees, partners, and
supplier's easy access to the information they need to effectively do their jobs, and the ability to analyse
and easily share this information with others.
Traditional Reporting
Traditionally reporting in an organization often flows up the management hierarchy of the business e.g.
Production operators will collect information about a production line, e.g. units produced, production
time, down time and utilization %, this information will be passed to a shift supervisor who may well
pass it in a summarized form to the production manager and then to a production director.
The key to an information marketplace is an active information repository--or catalog--which contains
or points to a variety of "information objects" both inside and external to the organization. Users can
browse through the catalog, shopping for objects that interest them and publishing objects that they've
created or modified for others to consume.
Analytic versus Business Intelligence
Information workers at all levels of the organization need to be able to interact with the data: to drill
down, drill up, slice and dice business information to quickly find the relevant facts on their own,
without administrative intervention.
Both business intelligence tools and analytic applications draw on information that has been sourced
from multiple disparate systems across (and sometimes beyond) an enterprise and integrated into an
information repository. Apart from this commonality, the contrast between them couldn’t be greater.
Business intelligence tools have been likened to spreadsheets on steroids. They deliver powerful
analysis and knowledge discovery capabilities into the hands of specialists who have gone through
week-long training classes to become familiar in their use. But in practice, using a business intelligence
tool is a painstaking and time-consuming process even for a power user. The user has to be proficient
in the use of the tool, know how to structure ad hoc queries and SQL statements, and also understand
how to perform intricate analyses. Consequently, with business intelligence tools, analysis is performed
in a silo – separate from management functions rather than integrated with them. The resulting reports
and forecasts are not always intuitively understandable and, in any case, represent after-the-fact
knowledge.
In contrast, analytic applications are focused on immediacy of information, its broad deployment and
its direct applicability across the entire enterprise value chain from front- and back-office operations to
supply chain, CRM, Web channel, sales and marketing, and other critical line functions. Integration,
analysis and delivery capabilities can all built into the application. Instead of waiting for reports to be
3. 2
sent to them by power users, analytics-enabled managers themselves use business problem-specific,
Web- based dashboards and scorecards to evaluate key performance metrics on a continual basis.
Rather than putting users through a voodoo-like process that is staggering in its complexity, analytic
applications provide analytic workflows that guide managers quickly and consistently through their
business decisions.
Strategic or Tactical
Business intelligence applications can be deployed either strategically i.e. across functional department
or tactically i.e. within a functional department.
Strategic
Strategic BI has the potential of big rewards. It can give senior managers a holistic view of the company
and can identify trends and opportunities for growth. It can also be used for monitoring the company
against its Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s). Because it goes across departmental boundaries it
encourages collaborative working in the organization.
Tactical
Can be applied to the ‘pain’ areas of your business where the extra knowledge and insight that BI can
bring will bring quick and quantifiable results. It is usually a good place to start if you have had no
previous experience in BI. An example of tactical BI deployment might be to look at production yield
from a manufacturing process, we might want to record inputs, output, wastage, plant breakdown.
IDENTIFYING BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE OPPORTUNITIES
The first task in starting a BI initiative—and the first goal of the BI roadmap—is identifying what you
want to achieve with business intelligence. In practical terms this means looking for opportunities in
your organization where business intelligence can improve the quality of day-to-day decision making.
This process is divided into three primary steps:
1. Doing your homework: requires consideration of where business intelligence can be applied
in an organization (for example, business units or functional areas), who is to benefit (for
example, executives, analysts, and managers), and what types of information are needed
(for example, dimensions and measures).
2. Sharing and collecting ideas: involves gathering people together to brainstorm and share
their ideas and experiences about which business processes can benefit from business
intelligence and what information can help them improve these processes.
3. Evaluating alternatives: uses standard criteria to assess the ideas collected during
brainstorming efforts and identify those BI opportunities that offer the greatest benefits.
Costs, Benefits & Returns
“Return on investment (ROI), the yardstick against which most corporate IT projects are measured, has
not been consistently used as a justification for data warehousing for two reasons. First, in the rush to
implement this highly popular decision support solution and important competitive weapon, early
adopters have tended to evaluate data warehousing using less stringent criteria than for other
technology outlays. Second, due to the relative immaturity of the technology, data warehousing
projects are recognized as inherently risky and deserving of greater latitude in delivering ROI.”
[CRANFORD, DMR 1998]
4. 3
BI opportunities are typically more difficult to evaluate than other IT projects using traditional return
on investment, payback, and discounted cash flow techniques, especially for companies that have no
experience with the technologies. OLTP systems are inextricably linked to the day-to-day processes of
the business, where costs are generally well known and consequences of systems failures, for example,
not processing an order or not invoicing a customer for goods shipped, are understood and easily
quantified.
With business intelligence, however, the most important benefits, while intuitively obvious, are often
not easily quantifiable in advance. They revolve around less measurable, more esoteric variables, such
as the impact of having information sooner, the quality of decisions, new marketplace insights and
tactics, and potential shifts in competitive strategy.
The list of intangible benefits, while difficult to quantify, is where the greatest and fastest paybacks
occur.
• Improved operational and strategic decisions from better and more timely information
• Improved employee communications and job satisfaction resulting from a greater sense of
empowerment
• Improved knowledge sharing
BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE INFRASTRUCTURE
Business organizations can gain a competitive advantage with a well-designed business intelligence (BI)
infrastructure. Think of the BI infrastructure as a set of layers that begin with the operational systems
information and Meta-data and end in delivery of business intelligence to various business user
communities. These layers are illustrated in Figure below.
Business Benefits
The payback achieved by building the business intelligence infrastructure is a function of how efficiently
it operates, how well the infrastructure is supported and enhanced by the business organization as well
as its capacity for producing business insight from raw operational data. The business intelligence
infrastructure delivers key information to business users. For maximum impact, standards and
procedures must be in place to provide key business information proactively. This business intelligence
infrastructure enables the organization to unlock the information from the legacy systems, to integrate
data across the enterprise and empower business users to become information self- sufficient.
Providing managers and knowledge workers with new tools allowing them to see data in new ways
empowers them to make faster and better decisions. Rather than responding to continuous stream of
report requests, the business intelligence platform provides business users self-service decision support
via the Web or at the desktop.
Data Integration
“It’s exactly this widespread source of data that has finance organizations struggling to meet the current
challenges before them. As companies grow larger through mergers, acquisitions and global expansion,
they collect and create more and more financial systems, a collection that becomes increasingly difficult
to manage and integrate.” [DEBROSSE, TD 2003]
5. 4
Based on the overall requirements of business intelligence, the data integration layer is required to
extract, cleanse and transform data into load files for the information warehouse. This layer begins with
transaction-level operational data and meta data about these operational systems. Typically this data
integration is done using a relational staging database and utilizing flat file extracts from source
systems.
Information Warehouse
The information warehouse layer consists of relational and/or OLAP cube services that allow business
users to gain insight into their areas of responsibility in the organization. Important in the warehouse
design the definition of databases that provide information on confirmed dimensions or business
variables that are true across the whole enterprise.
“What’s needed to aggregate the data, then make it available to the appropriate decision makers is a
data repository capable of pulling data from the disparate sources spread across the enterprise – an
enterprise data warehouse (EDW).” [DEBROSSE, TD 2003]
In order to architect this information warehouse layer correctly, the business requirements and key
business questions need to be defined. When this information is available, there will be additional
insight into the business derived from the underlying data that cannot be fully anticipated before the
data is actually available. Key areas to consider in defining requirements relate to the major functional
areas of the organization
BI Applications
The most visible layer of the business intelligence infrastructure is the applications layer which delivers
the information to business users. Business intelligence requirements include scheduled report
generation and distribution, query and analysis capabilities to pursue special investigations and
graphical analysis permitting trend identification.
This layer should enable business users to interact with the information to gain new insight into the
underlying business variables to support business decisions.
In order to achieve maximum velocity of business intelligence, continuous monitoring processes should
be in place to trigger alerts to business decision-makers, accelerating action toward resolving problems
or compensating for unforeseen business events. This proactive nature of business intelligence can
provide tremendous business benefits.
Portals
Presenting business intelligence on the Web through a portal is gaining considerable momentum. Web-
based portals are becoming commonplace as a single personalized point of access for key business
information. All major BI vendors have developed components which snap into the popular portal
infrastructure.
“Strictly focusing on the business intelligence (BI) aspects of corporate portals is dangerous because it
misses the needs of end users.” [KOUNADIS, DMR 2000]
How well is Your Business Intelligence Infrastructure Implemented and Supported?
To determine the completeness and adequacy of your BI infrastructure, answer the following
questions. Any "no" answers indicate opportunity areas for improvement.
6. 5
Do you have an effective data integration process in place to create required business
intelligence on a daily basis?
Are continuous monitoring processes in place to allow alerts to be communicated
immediately to those who need to take action?
Is your information delivery process automated?
Is your warehouse administration infrastructure completely automated?
Are alerting techniques used to communicate exceptions quickly so decisions are
accelerated?
Are the key business questions being answered about your business areas of
responsibility?
Is information available on standardized dimension such as customer, product and
geography?
Do you have adequate competitive information to answer key business questions?
Have you delivered scorecards on key performance indicators to top decision-makers?
Do you leverage your enterprise portal infrastructure to deliver business intelligence?
BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE AND FINANCIAL INDUSTRY
The financial services industry is rapidly changing. Factors such as globalization, deregulation, mergers
and acquisitions, competition from non-financial institutions, and technological innovation, have forced
companies to re-think their business strategy.
“As competition intensifies in the retail financial services marketplace, accurate measures of customer
value down to the account level are becoming increasingly pivotal to success at the retail end of the
market. This applies both to established players and new entrants.” [SIMON, NCR 2000]
Financial services companies now have to create new revenue streams, enter new markets, gain market
share, and reduce operational costs.
In addition, customers' expectations are changing. They are becoming better informed and more
demanding. Companies are therefore transforming their management strategy to become more
customer-centric than product focused.
Though these challenges span the financial services industry, consumer banking, investment banking,
and insurance each has its own unique demands that require different success strategies.
Business intelligence solutions have played a significant part in the strategy of many of financial
services' companies, to quickly adapt to market changes. With easy access to large amounts of complex
data from disperse sources, companies are able to manage costs and performance, and acquire and
increase the profitability of customers.
7. 6
Business intelligence solutions can help financial services companies in many ways, including retail
banking, insurance, and investment banking.
Retail Banking
Identify profitable customers and products by understanding customer buying patterns and
characteristics.
Retain customers and increase their value by understanding individual customer behaviour,
identifying and responding to changing needs, and offering better products and services.
Optimize multi-channel interaction by understanding customer preferences, transaction costs,
and channel performance.
Improve customer service by identifying and responding quickly to incoming call trends by
customer, representative, geography, and dispute types.
Increase effectiveness of marketing campaigns by analysing optimal response rates and
channel strategies.
Reduce customer acquisition costs by identifying profitable customer characteristics and
executing targeted marketing acquisition campaigns.
Reduce delivery costs by providing electronic bill reporting to enable customers to analyse their
bills and make informed decisions.
Reduce risk and minimize losses by understanding risk exposure both throughout the
organization and at an individual level.
“By establishing the value of each account to its business, the institution gets all the benefits of detailed
data, plus the ability to aggregate this data in an infinite variety of ways. The value of this capability is
reflected by the wide range of functions across the institution which queue up to make use of
aggregated account data as soon as it becomes available.” [SIMON, NCR 2000]
Investment Banking
Increase customer satisfaction by exceeding demands of high net worth individuals through improved
understanding of their needs, risk tolerance, and investment interests.
Improve customer loyalty and increase their value by providing access to account information so that
customers can make faster and more effective company and employee investment strategies.
Respond quickly to meet regulatory requirements by reporting on the level of exposure of
holdings and investments in volatile regions.
