Background of the Study

In the rapidly evolving business environment, digital transformation has become essential for organizations striving to maintain competitiveness. Central to this transformation is the use of business analytics, which enables organizations to leverage data for making informed decisions, optimizing processes, and enhancing customer experiences (Abubakar & Nwogugu, 2024). In Jigawa State, corporate firms are increasingly adopting digital tools, but the extent to which business analytics is driving their transformation remains underexplored.

Business analytics involves the use of data analysis tools and techniques, such as data mining, predictive analytics, and business intelligence, to extract actionable insights from data. When applied effectively, these tools empower businesses to streamline operations, identify growth opportunities, and reduce operational risks (Akanbi & Sule, 2025). However, there are challenges, such as insufficient data quality, lack of skilled professionals, and resistance to technological changes, that impede the full potential of business analytics in driving digital transformation in Jigawa State's corporate sector. This study examines how business analytics is being utilized to drive digital transformation in corporate firms, exploring the impact of these tools on business performance, decision-making, and overall growth.

Statement of the Problem

While corporate firms in Jigawa State have started to integrate business analytics into their operations, many are still struggling to fully harness the power of analytics in driving comprehensive digital transformation. Issues such as lack of infrastructure, insufficient training for employees, and limited awareness of the strategic role of analytics hinder the success of these initiatives. This study seeks to evaluate the role of business analytics in driving digital transformation in Jigawa State, with a particular focus on identifying the challenges and opportunities for local corporate firms.

  2. Challenges such as lack of infrastructure and skilled personnel do not significantly hinder the adoption of business analytics for digital transformation.

  3. Strategies for improving the adoption of business analytics have no significant effect on the success of digital transformation in Jigawa State’s corporate sector.
