Assessment Details
This is a business analytics project aimed at generating innovative analytics solutions for a Company. The objective is to analyse the given datasets from a relevant firm's perspective in terms of implications and strategies which the chosen company could adopt to improve its functions, resources and processes efficiently and effectively.
You are expected to work in a group to find a dataset with minimum of 10,000 rows from publicly available sources. You also need to hypothetically identify a company (chosen company) who could get benefits from the analysis of the dataset. You are expected to discuss the selected dataset with your tutor in labs by Week 7. Below is a list of open data sources:
1. World Bank Open Data
2. WHO (World Health Organization) - Open data repository
3. Google Public Data Explorer
4. Registry of Open Data on AWS (RODA)
5. European Union Open Data Portal
6. FiveThirtyEight
7. U.S. Census Bureau
8. Data.gov
9. UNICEF Dataset
10. DBpedia
11. freeCodeCamp Open Data
12. Australian Govt Data
Your group is to complete the following tasks:
Task 1- Background information
Write a description of the selected dataset and project, and its importance for your chosen company. Information must be appropriately referenced.
Task 2 - Perform Data Mining on data view
Upload the selected dataset on SAP Predictive Analysis. For your dataset, perform the relevant data analysis tasks on data uploaded using data mining techniques such as classification/association/time series/clustering and identify the BI reporting solution and/or dashboards you need to develop for the operational manager of the chosen company. [2-3 Pages]
Task 3 - Research
Justify why you chose the BI reporting solution/dashboards/data mining technique in Task 3 and why those data sets attributes are present and laid out in the fashion you proposed (feel free to include all other relevant justifications).
Note: To ensure that you discuss this task properly, you must include visual samples of the reports you produce (i.e. the screenshots of the BI report/dashboard must be presented and explained in the written report; use ‘Snipping tool'), and also include any assumptions that youmay have made about the analysis from Task 3.
Task 4 - Recommendations for CEO
The CEO of the chosen company would like to improve their operations. Based on your BI analysis and the insights gained from your "Dataset" in the lights of analysis performed in previous tasks, make some logical recommendations to the CEO, and justify why/how your proposal could assist in achieving operational/strategic objectives with the help of appropriate references from peer-reviewed sources.
Task 5 - Cover letter
Write a cover letter to the CEO of the chosen firm with the important data insights and recommendations to achieve operational/strategic objectives.
