Enterprise-grade data warehouse (DW) and business intelligence (BI) projects are still perceived as "heavy" and believed to be successful only by attacking them with waterfall-style software development processes. While there are specific DW/BI endeavors that project teams can safely execute as waterfall, most can be successfully transformed into Agile projects. This Executive Report shares experiences gained while applying an Agile approach to a complex BI project.

When asking a typical IT manager about a single area where an enterprise architecture (EA) effort should be able to prove its value, probably the most expected answer would be "giving support to projects being run." It is not my ambition here to present the whole scope of possibilities in which EA could support running projects but rather to focus on the refactoring needs concept introduced in Part of this series. Recall that Part II presented refactoring needs in the context of an actual case study in which I worked. Here in Part III, I continue with that case and get into more details about how the refactoring needs built on an EA could support and synergize ongoing software development projects.
