Modern Data Analytics Assessment

Our Modern Data Analytics Assessment focuses on how a data strategy and data platform can enable your business to reach its corporate goals. We look at where you are now on your data journey, where you want to be, and most importantly, a roadmap to get you there.

Your company’s data is the key to understanding, optimising and growing your business. The right strategy will enable you use your data effectively to achieve your goals. To get you started we offer a free of charge Data Strategy Discovery, which will take you through the steps to improving how your organisation acquires, stores data, managed and shares that information.

Data Maturity Assessment

How data mature is your organisation?

Data maturity is often described as a journey, and if you don’t know where you are on that journey, how do you know where you’re going? Understanding your organisation’s level of data maturity – and choosing to advance on your data journey – is key to achieving your goals and making more informed decisions.

Challenges and Solutions in Data Strategy

A well-defined data strategy can help your team tackle challenges by ensuring data integration, maintaining high data quality and governance, and scaling infrastructure to meet growing data demands. This leads to more reliable insights, better decision-making, and improved overall efficiency within the organisation.

Our organisation often faces issues with data silos, where information is isolated in different departments or systems, making it difficult to get a comprehensive view of the data. Can data strategy help us?

Of course! Implementing a effective data strategy can help break down these silos by establishing a unified data architecture. This involves using data lakes, data warehouses, and ETL processes to consolidate data from disparate sources.


We struggle with poor data quality and lack of governance, which can lead to inaccurate analysis, compliance issues, and distrust in data-driven insights. What data strategies can we implement to improve our data quality and establish effective data governance to ensure accuracy, consistency, and compliance?

A comprehensive data governance framework ensures data accuracy, consistency, and security. This includes creating data quality standards and implementing data cleansing and validation processes. Further, utilising master data management (MDM) systems can help maintain data integrity and enforce data policies across the organization.
