Service Snapshot: Business Insight Systems

Data held within organisations is often hampered by the systems that hold it. Different formats, different angles and dimensions depending on department. A consolidated view is the dream of many organisations. Our experience in building world-class solutions for the largest companies is what you can tap into.

Challenge

Companies set a data standard, and as soon as it is in place a new set of requirements emerge, or a new business opportunity changes the game. New data is arising all the time. It comes from different sources and is now based on different criteria.

This new type of data could possibly be interaction by people on social networking sites, which could give valuable insight into new markets and potential for a product.

An organisation merges with another. There is not time to set up new data systems, you need to analyse fast what is there to keep and what needs to go.

Data is fast moving and totally defines failure and success in today’s world.

Solution

Our experience in creating solutions for some of the largest pharmaceutical companies, mobile phone makers and manufacturing companies brings a word of real practical experience to solving mission critical problems.

If your organisation needs to respond quickly, and cost effectively to data insight issues, then we hold the key.

We have seen data projects in organisations run into years of development and cost millions, and then miss the boat.

We have clients that are happy that they solved their problems in weeks or months, and cost a fraction of even the monthly data maintenance costs of similar projects.

Our Approach

Our approach is simple, and that is the key. That combined with years of practical experience delivering solutions with minimal outlay.  We like to:

• listen to your business needs
• look at your data
• design a data insight strategy
• use lean methodologies
• keep costs down
• maintain confidentiality

This enables us to develop quick, clean, cost effective and most importantly: meaningful insight systems. A meaningful system will inform business decisions at the strategic level.
The systems we design are bespoke to each organisation, and can be easily changed and maintained.

Research & Insight

Our approach is informed by our Research and Insight service group, which can help on defining new insights and developing new data to leverage existing information.

We work closely to develop the full information value chain based on your business needs:

• Data
• Data in context
• Information
• Knowledge
• Action
• Value
