Thriving with your data starts with a solid strategy. We help you develop a long-term, guiding plan that defines the people, processes, and technology you need to put in place so you can start using your data to achieve your business goals.
Objectives
A data strategy is more than a one-off data project. It is the foundation an organization needs to get increasing value from their data—and the agility to evolve data practices when demands grow and new technologies emerge.
Behind every business transformation is a good data strategy and long-term roadmap that defines the people, processes, technology, and data needed to achieve company objectives.
Whether you are creating a new data strategy, need a plan to refine your existing data strategy, need help executing your data strategy, or want expert insight on a specific initiative, our data strategy consultants have you covered.
Data Strategy Assessment
We’ll assess your current data and analytics issues and develop a complete data strategy, including a step-by-step roadmap to achieve long-term goals. Nobody wants to pay a vendor to come in and tell them what they already know – that’s why at the end of your assessment, you’ll be equipped with a customized data management plan for how exactly to move forward.
Data Strategy Refinement and Execution
When dealing with an unpredictable economy, changing business priorities, and new technology choices, it is important to regularly review and update your data strategy. We will help refresh your data strategy to ensure your data, people, processes, and tools are positioned to help you achieve your business objectives. We’re also ready to be your trusted partner when it’s time to execute your data strategy roadmap.
Data Science Readiness
Data science initiatives can easily be a costly mistake without adequate preparation. We will work with you to define valuable data science use cases and tell you what it will take to get there. After a review of your current data, processes, technology, and infrastructure, you’ll get a plan that lays out steps to initiate a data science program, including initiatives you can undertake immediately and recommendations for being successful with data science.
Tool, Technology & Architecture Recommendations
Technology in the data and analytics space evolves quickly. We will help you choose the best tools for your needs, ensuring they play well with the rest of your data and analytics ecosystem and technologies. This includes facilitating vendor demos and providing you with a scorecard rating with a complete tool comparison. We also provide optimization recommendations for existing tools, so you get the most value from your technology investments.
Data Governance Program
Define how people and processes factor into how your organization achieves and maintains success with data and analytics. We will help establish a formal data governance program to ensure data is accessible, secure, uniform, and trusted throughout the organization. We also provide guidance on committee composition and charter, and can even facilitate meetings as a neutral third party.
Executive Advisory Services
We partner with executives and help use their data to address their biggest problems. This includes identifying and defining metrics needed to run the business, developing a plan for enabling decision making around these metrics, team structuring and assessments, and establishing data governance programs.
