Building the Foundation to Enable a True Data-Driven Organization

A Global Professional Services Firm

The Mission

Professional services firms have always been data-driven, as their crucial commodity is information. Yet the sheer abundance of data across vast organizations poses challenges, often resulting in limited use and sharing, followed by re-creation of information. This firm created a data fabric connecting business professionals and next-gen services with a wealth of information across their global network while enforcing high security and trust.

Key benefits

  • Organization-wide data and information sharing capability, enabling self-service and combinatory products​
  • Next-generation data monetization through client-facing information products and services​
  • Successful project delivery supported by challenging ideas and concepts, providing thought leadership and technology excellence.​

The result

Collaborating with CID, the professional services firm’s team kick-started a multi-year data fabric project, working along business use cases and data products. Within weeks, the team delivered MVPs and small solutions to business stakeholders. Working in hybrid mode, a significant part of the implementation work was covered by internal resources, on- and off-shore. At the same time, CID provided essential thought leadership, technology advice, and additional implementation power.
