Roles Involved in These Activities


  • Application lead developer

    The application lead developer should review the application requirements document with the business representative, and together they should prepare a short and informal prototype charter. The application lead developer should also review the existing or mock-up report and query layouts, which will form the basis for the prototype design. He or she also has to make plans for scheduling the prototype demonstrations .

  • Business representative

    The primary responsibility of a business representative is to use the prototype to learn about the feasibility and the look and feel of the BI application. The business representative should assist the application lead developer in creating the prototype charter. The business representative also needs to review the overall BI project requirements and revise them if necessary. This can be accomplished only if the business representative participates in the design and the review of the prototype and is actively involved in the demonstrations.

  • Database administrator

    The database administrator is responsible for designing and loading the prototype database with sample source data or sample test data. He or she should also review all database access calls (Structured Query Language [SQL] statements).

  • Stakeholders

    The stakeholders do not directly participate in the BI project activities, but they have a vested interest in the project. They should take part in the prototype demonstrations and provide input regarding any additional common access requirements for reports , queries, and ad hoc usage.

  • Subject matter expert

    The subject matter expert has to analyze and discuss the access and analysis requirements for reports and queries with the prototyping team. He or she should work with the business representative and project manager to determine the purpose, goals, and primary use of the prototype.

  • Web master

    The Web master has to review the existing tools slated for use with Web access to the BI application. The Web master also has to evaluate the usability of the prototype design with regard to Web access and has to determine the necessary interfaces.
