Bridging the Gap between Data Science and Decision Makers: A Review of Augmented Analytics in Business Intelligence
Abstract
The integration of augmented analytics into business intelligence systems is reshaping how organizations transform complex datasets into actionable insights. This paper reviews the evolution, core components, and strategic value of augmented analytics as a bridge between technical data processes and executive decision-making. Emphasis is placed on the use of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language generation to automate data preparation, pattern recognition, and insight delivery in a user-friendly format. The study highlights how these technologies enhance accessibility, reduce cognitive load, and support real-time decision-making across enterprise environments. Through a critical evaluation of analytical frameworks, adoption strategies, and implementation challenges, the paper examines the role of augmented analytics in improving data literacy, governance, and business outcomes. Issues such as bias in algorithms, scalability limitations, and regulatory compliance are explored to provide a comprehensive understanding of current constraints. The findings underscore the importance of aligning augmented analytics with organizational goals and recommend a strategic roadmap for future integration that emphasizes transparency, scalability, and cross-functional collaboration to maximize the impact of business intelligence initiatives.
