Description

A complete, start-to-finish roadmap for the data warehouse project manager!

  • Best practices, templates, examples, checklists, and much more.
  • Specific solutions to the complex problems that arise most often in data warehousing projects.
  • CD-ROM includes hands-on workshops and easy-to-adapt project templates.
The average data warehouse takes three years to build and costs $3-5 million -- yet many data warehouse project managers are thrown into the position with no clear idea of their roles, authority, or even objectives. It's no wonder that 85% of all data warehouse projects fall short of their objectives, and 40% fail completely. In Data Warehouse Project Management, two leading data warehouse project management consultants present start-to-finish best practices for getting the job done right. Sid Adelman and Larissa Terpeluk Moss cover the entire lifecycle, from proposing a data warehouse project through staffing a team, developing project scope, justifying, negotiating, and marketing the data warehouse project internally, and then implementing the data warehouse. They present real-world case studies identifying the key pitfalls that arise repeatedly in data warehouse projects -- and offer proven solutions for addressing these challenges. The book and CD-ROM contain an extensive library of templates and checklists, plus self-tests to determine whether an organization is really ready for data warehousing.

Sid Adelman is a world-recognized data warehousing consultant. He is Chairman of the International Data Warehousing Board, and President & Founder of Sid Adelman & Associates. Larissa Terpeluk Moss, also an internationally known data warehousing consultant, is President and Founder of MethodFocus, Inc. Larissa is the developer of RSDM-2000, a Relational System Development Methodology. Both have published extensively in DM Review.
