Data analytics is key to informed decision-making. As you embark on your journey to derive more meaningful data insights, a comprehensive approach to planning and executing your journey is important.

Mapping Your Data Journey

PHASE 1

Manual Reporting

  • Uses tables and spreadsheets to display data and reports
  • Requires understanding of data to get insights, makes it difficult to ask questions of the data
  • Limits insights and requires team to build and maintain reports

  • Relies on already established data structures
  • Shows non-data users the value that exists within data by making it user friendly

PHASE 3

Create and Implement a Data Strategy and Methodology

  • Modernizes data platforms to provide more inclusive, accurate and scalable data
  • Allows organizations to have all users become data literate and interact with the data
  • Sets an organization up for extracting greater value out of the data
