CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
The main purpose of research is to analyze role of big data and artificial intelligence in
strategic decision making of organisation. In recent times, many new technologies has emerged
which is been used by businesses. In that big data is has enabled in gathering and storing data
and information. It has benefited in making strategic decisions through which their financial and
operational efficiency is improved. Also, many studies on big data is been conducted on its
impact, benefits or challenges faced by business. But in this study it is been evaluated about how
use of big data can influence organisation operational and financial performance. Alongside it,
introduction chapter includes elements identified below :-
 Defining research problem
 Identify aim and objective of study
 Research questions
1.1 Problem description
In recent times, information technology is been used in all businesses. It has allowed in
gathering of data and information. Technological advancement has resulted in transforming
business operations and functions. It has also created a great impact on human life as well. The
frequent development in technology and use of computers is bringing major changes in business
performance. Now, organisations are able to use of advance IT tools and equipments in many
functions. However, IT has provided vast number of opportunities for business to grow and
develop. It has given many advantages in decision making, maintaining quality, use of data and
information, etc. IT is used in many sectors such as education, retail, construction, etc.
Moreover, by using computer system processes, communication and many other things are
improved. In similar way big data is also a technology used by business. It stores large data sets
which can be easily analyzed. The data is stored in real time which provides change in trends by
giving outputs.
Big data is used by small and large organisations. It has integrated overall business data
into centralised one. With this it has become easy to develop strategies and take effective
decision. The emergence of big data in business has solved many complex problems. The
collection of data gives an insight on what changes may occur, market trends, economic stability,
etc. Big data is much more rather than technology. Today, companies are able to gather large
amount of data and analyze them. It has benefited firms to gain competitive advantage, develop
1

new products and services, increase customer base, expand in new markets, etc. In big data, data
mining is also new concept used to filter data. By this it organisation select only that data which
is useful. Apart from it, there are many advance systems installed to store, segregate, process,
data. So, accumulating of large amount of info supports in effective decision making and
improving business performance. It also assists in controlling and regulating business activities
and moving forward in right direction. In addition to it, short and long term goals are set by
organisation to enhance their efficiency.
With help of big data, data analytics is used to process data and obtain relevant outcomes.
Here, AI is implemented in data analytics which makes it simplifies information.
But there is negative impact of big data on business as well. Some small businesses are
not able to maintain such big records. Big Data and artificial intelligence have emerged in terms
of decision making and strategic planning (Wellin, 2016). A detailed analysis conducted to
overview business opportunities using artificial intelligence can help in evaluation of different
types of complex business equations and transactions for better use and determination.
BDAI (Big Data and Artificial Intelligence) is an analytical framework that helps in
examining the complex business data and equations for better use. Decision-making process
majorly depends upon accurate figures and aspects related to operations and functions. Various
information tools and systems are used in this context related to analysing the financial stability
and functions for more effective and efficient manner.
Background of the organization
Samsung, IBM, HSBC financials are organizations using the Big Data analytical
organization to improve the internal business models and performance levels. The preventable
aspects and considerable changes mainly associated with ambitious and consisting changes with
the leading creations and challenges. Leading organizations are tracking their performance and
improving the financial capacity to complete the advanced innovative approaches and tools. This
is mainly created with the management and control with completing the data with general
decentralized with the approach. Organizations sometimes share their information and details
with other organizations and entities to improve business relations. Data sharing and cross-
business networking also get impacted due to this function and the insight support of analytical
strategy at the corporate level.

1.3 Research Question and Objectives
Aim helps to maintain the flow of information relevant to the subject and helps in
consolidating the business equations for machine learning. The norms mostly help in compiling
the data with technological aspects and generation availability. It is analysed that with the
changing business requirements the objectives of business also have been derived from a
traditional analytical approach to critical thinking. Aims also associated with determining the
challenges and opportunities by collecting information at large business level.
Aim- “To analyse the efficiency of data-driven decision making (DDD’M) and artificial
intelligence in a business organization”
Objective:-
 To analyse the role of Big Data-driven for decision making and strategic planning
 To derive the data under Big Data Artificial Intelligence as per organizational
information
 To determine the use of artificial intelligence in strategic decision making
Research question
For conducting a study it is important to define some research questions so that research
can be conducted. Thus, based on above problem there are two questions which are been taken.
The aim of research is to get an insight about How organizations derive the digital business
transformation through data-driven insight and excellence efficiency to impact strategic
decision making?
Also, the purpose is to evaluate first question and on basis of that to analyze How Big data
and artificial intelligence help to improve the financial and operational performance of an
organization? Thus, it will be answer the above question by making it easy to get desires results.
Furthermore, it by gathering data it aims of study can be attained.
