Quebec Needs Bi: Sas

摘要

Companies in quebec have been generally slower to leverage the data stemming from our ultra-digitized world, said a SAS executive. Mario Ianniciello, who over- sees Canada's eastern region, said, "Quebec likes to look within itself. That's not to say other provinces or countries are better at this and that Quebec can't do it," he said, but for geographic and linguistic reasons, the province has not taken an outward look when it comes to business. A study conducted by SAS and Leger Marketing found 59 per cent of Quebec executives reported being overwhelmed by information, 78 per cent believed their staff could share information more effectively, and 72 per cent said that having the right tools would help them better analyze data. Results were based on online surveys with 374 executive-level decision makers from small-to-medium sized businesses and enterprises in a mix of verticals.
