Data & Program Strategy
We believe that a data strategy should always inform application and infrastructure design and implementation and should therefore always be the first step in any data transformation effort. Our methodology is derived from best practices and years of experience in higher education. We work with you to develop a detailed plan to ensure the successful implementation of modern technology and organizational change management.
The starting point is your vision – the result is a definition of a Future State that fulfills your business drivers and a roadmap that gets you there.
PROGRAM VALUATION
A Program Valuation provides a tangible demonstration of the value proposition of an organization’s data and technology initiatives and ties them to broader organizational strategies and goals.
OUR APPROACH:
– We tailor cost-benefit analyses based on your organization and operational metrics.
– We assess the opportunity size of addressing data and technology pain points within the overall Data Program.
– We create a cost model for implementation and onwards with consideration to People and Technology needs.
Data GOvernance
A robust Data Governance program yields increased trust and confidence in data, leading to better informed decision-making, and streamlined data operations with clear data management processes and roles.
OUR APPROACH:
– Collaborative development of scalable data governance practices following best-practice frameworks
– Comprehensive evaluation and application of all aspects of governance
– Enforcement of standards across the data lifecycle (i.e., collecting, maintaining, sharing).
Data Infrastructure Design & Implementation
We provide end-to-end data platform consulting, from strategy through definition to implementation of enterprise architecture and architecture components. Effective data infrastructure design requires a strategic and comprehensive approach, aligning our client’s business objectives with data strategy and system requirements.
A modern data platform enables operational efficiency by integrating data from disparate source systems into a centralized pipeline, streamlining the process for data storage, management, retrieval and analysis.
