Data Services – Readiness / Strategy / Implementation
Data warehouses, data marts and operational data stores are not new to the industry but the approach to establish, governing and managing them is. Today data is not simply a heap of storage but is an asset from which we can glean much information and create actionable findings. Business intelligence is a word oft misused but what it is and how does one get there? At Edgewater Technology, we see three levels of BI:
- Reporting – standard, ad-hoc, multi-dimensional alerts and dashboards
- Base Analytics – multi-dimensional analysis, trend analysis, forecasting, basic data mining and analytical portals
- Advanced Analytics – predictive modeling/analytics, scenario/simulation planning, decision trees, advanced data mining and advanced analytical applications
The major question is “Where to start?” and the answer lies in a data readiness assessment; too often we are all too keen to embark on data projects without the correct planning and thought process – forewarned is forearmed. Edgewater Technology is pleased to offer a five (5) prong offering to Data Readiness:
- Process Alignment
- Business Alignment
- Organizational Alignment
- Data Quality Assessment
- Enabling Technology Alignment
Through Edgewater Technology key service offerings we can not only ensure you set off on the voyage correctly we can ensure you arrive safe and sound – whether simple dashboard creation or a complex Life insurance policy administration conversion, we have the right approach, expertise and pedigree to succeed.
