Becoming a Data Enabled/Driven Business
Data is the beating heart of modern businesses and becoming data-enabled/driven, able to embrace Artificial Intelligence, both within the boundaries of your own and wider data sources whilst remaining within relevant regulatory and compliance boundaries is not just about technology.
We have 4 core data foundations consisting of Data Fabric, Data Architecture, Data Governance, and Generative AI which we have defined, allowing us to provide the right guidance and advice at the right time for you and your business.
Breaking these 4 core foundations down into more digestible services, or sprints, is of course preferable and allows you to see value at each stage, whilst knowing that you are on a clearly understood pathway. To support you in this we have created a multi-phase framework we call d2-cubed and layer our services across to help plan and manage our engagements and on-going partnerships to ensure success.
