Analytics Consulting Services

Our team can design an analytics program that is customized to your organization. We can design a program that includes the strategic objectives, tactical initiatives, and reporting metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of your analytics program.

We practice the Microsoft Team Data Science Process (TDSP), a successor to CRISP-DM and is inclusive of the Scrum approach.

We can implement the following processes in your organization:

• Strategic analytics processes that establish clear timelines and objectives, based on your organization’s objectives
• Communications plans and RASCI accountability matrices that clearly define a road map for getting the message across and build trust in analytics
• Tactical analytics processes that provide insight into workforce management and task completion to better understand the effectiveness and efficiency of an analytics program 
• A means to measure the overall effectiveness of the analytics program performance and a change management approach to improve analytics program efficiency

We have experience working with the latest technologies to support your analytics development. Whether you seek to quickly assess data for anomalies, are looking for help designing a deep learning algorithm, seek to automate your analytics process, or need to visualize your data in a dashboard, we can design a solution for your team.

We believe in remaining tools agnostic– technology is always changing, and today’s leading analytics tool could be replaced by another tomorrow. As, such, we can help you identify the right tool for today and for the future.

Some of the tools we have used to produce analytics include:

Has your department developed analytics that are being used consistently in your organization? Now may be the time to consider automating some of the analytics processes you regularly use.

Our team has experience implementing automation. Either we can create a scheduled approach that utilizes the technology that exists in your organization, or we can advise and train your team to implement the latest automation tools. 

The common adage amongst data scientist professionals is that 80% of the time spent in analytics is spent acquiring and cleaning up data for further assessment. We can build a data retrieval solution that reduces the time you spend acquiring and cleansing data, providing your team more time to analyze data. We have worked with several ETL tools to acquire and cleanse data from multiple data sources.

We can help you implement a solution that works for your team using automation tools including:

Are you looking to detect fraud or irregularity the moment it happens? You most likely need a series of advanced analytics processes to find unrecognized patterns in your data.

Developing an advanced analytics program is an investment. According to the Journal of Accountancy, the time invested into analytics typically takes 3 years for an audit team to see an ROI. The time commitment to develop analytics also can take away critical hours from your auditing/compliance activities.

Additionally, AI in audit and compliance is non-traditional and not all teams have access to staff with data science backgrounds. The identification of a new staff member may be difficult to justify— someone with a solid data science background and a strong knowledge of business risks is often costly for a 3-year investment.

Have ambitions to implement the latest AI techniques but do not want to take away from your audits? Expecting more readily noticeable ROI without increased overhead? We can help you design impactful analytics that can be used to achieve actionable, meaningful results.
