Make sure the KPIs at the strategic level are in line with the KPIs on tactical and operational level. Also make sure that the organization is consciously handling and managing these KPI’s; from an employee on the workfloor up and down the pyramid of performance management. 

Create performance management with a clear distinction between 'normal' BI (tactical / strategic level) and operational BI. BI has a specific set of technical / functional requirements that partly are different for operational BI; also the target audience is different. Use best of breed "technology, reasoning from the business priorities; which is the biggest pain or opportunity, and then select the best technology that helps the business. 

You do not stare blindly at the "dashboard beauty contest ', ensure that your application consists of an efficient architecture that simply does what it should do. 

Optional: 
Do not use data quality issues as an argument for doing nothing, just use BI for insight into data quality issues and then focus on the remedy.
