Super Crunching with EDM

Thanks to Rolando I linked to this article Era of the Super Cruncher in which Ian Ayres discusses his new book - Super Crunchers: Why Thinking-by-Numbers Is the New Way to Be Smart. I have not read the book yet, though I will, but it seems to me that to do what Ian suggests, that is replace intuition with data-driven decisioning on an industrial scale, you need an approach to automate, improve and connect the decisions that drive your business. You need, in other words, EDM or Enterprise Decision Management.
