Building the Readiness Data Warehouse

Abstract

Organizations must manage information assets. To meet the requirement, corporate data must be analyzed, comprehended, transformed and delivered. This is the role of the data warehouse. The data warehouse will deliver business intelligence based on operational data, decision support data and external data to all business units in the organization. The program managers and resource managers at Command-in-Chief, U.S. Atlantic Fleet (CINCLANFLT) need consistent and reconciled business intelligence to manage the level of readiness of active and reserve forces. As a component command and force provider, readiness information is used by the fleet commands (FLTCINCs) to make business management decisions about which assets should be used for assigned missions. Our goal is to build a readiness data warehouse that will enable information management to change the way organizations leverage and value their information assets. With the ability to easily access information, mission delivery, resource management and data dissemination can be raised to levels previously unimagined. This paper will identify the many issues associated with the process of building our readiness data warehouse. Specifically, it addresses the need to manage complexity and presents the development methodology, data architecture and technical architecture for the readiness data warehouse.
