In Saudi Arabia, organizations are gradually recognizing the importance of Business Intelligence (BI) to support growth and decision-making. Many companies are still in the early stages of the BI maturity model, often relying on basic reporting and spreadsheet-based analysis, which reflects Level 1 (Unaware) or Level 2 (Opportunistic) stages. At these levels, data may be inconsistent, and BI is usually limited to specific departments without an organization-wide strategy. However, larger and more tech-driven companies, especially in sectors like finance, telecommunications, and government, are moving towards more advanced stages of BI maturity. These organizations are starting to establish BI standards, create dedicated BI teams, and invest in advanced analytics, positioning them in Level 3 (Standards) or even Level 4 (Enterprise). With Vision 2030 pushing for digital transformation, there is a clear drive for more organizations to reach higher maturity levels in BI, enabling strategic, data-driven decision-making across the enterprise. Examples of BI maturity in Saudi organizations across different industries: 1-Al Rajhi Bank. 2- SNB. 3-STC. 4-Mobily 5-Jarir Bookstore. 6-Extra. 7- SDAIA. 8-King Faisal Specialist Hospital.
