Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

Business intelligence (BI) has been a top priority for CIOs for the last two years, according to recent surveys by research firm Gartner and CIO magazines. Both surveys show that BI will remain top of mind through 2010 and into the near future. In fact, CIO magazine’s Technology Priorities Survey, published in January, showed that survey respondents were actively researching BI more than any other enterprise technology.

The interest in BI is no surprise. After all, it is a way for organizations to use real, raw data generated from within the company and externally by customers, suppliers, and partners to make better business decisions. Most recently, CIOs have focused on BI as a way to help weather — and thrive in — the economic downturn.
