BI reporting tools vary widely, from simple spreadsheet-based solutions to complex enterprise-level platforms. The choice of tools depends on factors such as the size of the organization, the volume and complexity of data, and specific reporting requirements.

Data Integration and Storage: The gathered information must be kept in one central location, such as a data mart or warehouse. To maintain accuracy and consistency, integration may need data transformation and cleaning.

Data Analysis: BI tools and techniques can be used to evaluate data after it has been stored. To find trends, patterns, correlations, and insights that can aid in decision-making, analysis entails querying the data.
