Conducting a Rules Based Audit (RBA) is done in order to get answers, to add clarity, to understand scale and scope of the project at hand---essentially, to mitigate risk. Specifically, the RBA is designed to answer a single, fundamental question: Can we take known sources, add explicit business rules and create the target data necessary for subsequent analysis? If you cannot answer this question with confidence, then you have no business risking company resources on any project iteration.

HandsOn-BI has developed and maintains its own tool to conduct Rule Based Audits for our clients. The product is called Business Rule Engine (BRE). This product is now available for download, free of charge, for our members. As with other products we offer our members, BRE is not supported. Therefore, download it, use it for your projects, keep an eye out for updates that we post, but don't email us with questions on its use.
