Most other organisations understand that harnessing data as an asset is crucial to success. Research shows that 81% of businesses think data should be at the heart of every business decision.

These and many other Consultancies have made significant investments to acquire or establish expertise in Data Analytics and Big Data, enabling them to extend these capabilities to their clients, and embed data at the heart of their clients’ businesses.
