Data is the basic raw values and numbers available in companies' databases, while information is the data after preprocessing, cleaning, organizing, and after performing multiple analysis to make it more understandable and representable.  

Information has more value than data because it is the way for extracting knowledge about companies' performance. Transforming data into information provides a tool to identify areas for improvement and specifying starting points to initiate Lean Six Sigma projects.

 

Excel is one of the most powerful and simple tools for performing data analysis to extract information and knowledge. It can be used in business management for collecting and organizing data that includes performance measures  (e.g. time spent on specific tasks by different employees, waiting time of customers, number of orders, etc.). Excel Data analysis tools can also be applied to data records using like excel solver and data analysis tools.
