Looking for papers in the following areas:

*Best Practices in Business Intelligence
Delivered by end users (not vendors), presentations in this category are end user case studies that highlight a particular best practice deployed/implemented within an end user organization. Submissions in this category should describe a specific business intelligence project from start to finish and focus on the creative/innovative design and application of various technologies to provide a custom solution for an organization's specific business intelligence demands.

*Overview and Methodology in Navigating the BI Process

*Creating a Strategic Vision and Using BI for ROI through IT Leadership

*Planning, Designing and Building the BI Infrastructure

*Selecting and Deploying BI Technologies

*Managing Performance and Enterprise Business Analytics

*Information Retrieval and Reporting by Leveraging Off-the-Shelf Enterprise Software

*Data Visualization, Prediction and Presentation by Leveraging Customized Solutions

*Use of Competency Centers to Champion BI Technologies to Enterprise-Wide ROI

While not required for submission, representatives of IT end-user companies are the most preferred as presenters. (If you represent an IT vendor organization, we recommend you ask and/or facilitate securing an IT end-user customer to present. If you represent an IT vendor organization and you prefer to submit an executive speaker from your company -- rather than an IT end-user customer/executive -- we strongly recommend you propose your senior-most executive -- CEO or COO -- as those titles are the most likely vendor speakers to be considered.)
