Help! The data in my reports isn’t complete or accurate

Organisations wisely invest to ensure their BI and Data Science projects are properly scoped, developed and deployed, but often never really test the quality of their data until it’s in the hands of their consumers.

Master Data Management is your compass through the sea of data chaos. Bring together critical information like customers, products, and suppliers into a unified source of the truth.

“Simpson Associates provided us with the expertise to see us through the design and the implementation phases and potential problems that we hit and got us through those. But they also understood our needs as a charity, the components that make up our data warehouse come partly from Microsoft, partly from other companies like Civica and Simpson Associates provided the glue to help us bring those together and get the best out of them.”
