Innover 8 WK - Data Strategy Assessment & Roadmap

An AI program must yield quantifiable benefits soon after implementation. The outcome of the data strategy exercise is a detailed and actionable roadmap, along with a program plan that clearly lists workstreams, dependencies, budget needs, and risks.

Our experience suggests that ~5X ROI is to be expected. This assessment will determine which process areas will realize a quantifiable ROI, and which data & applications initiatives are needed.

We have completed several successful client programs on Microsoft Azure using Microsoft Synapse, Microsoft Data Factory, and Microsoft machine learning platform. During this workshop we will show you how each strategic item covered in the workshop maps to the trifecta of building data pipelines, running the right models, and operationalizing them using cloud capabilities on Azure. We will outline ways to help you expand or adopt Azure to realize your AI goals. If you are already an Azure customer, this workshop will serve as a quick and objective evaluation of your Azure usage so you can expand and optimize your adoption. ​

This is an intensive and detailed exercise requiring some time commitment from your cross-functional teams. We will conduct interviews, review process and data model diagrams, analyze technology applications, and whiteboard potential alternatives.

We deliver the following so that you can get started immediately with the next steps.:

1. Target Data Management Organization & Target Operating Model
2. Data management execution plan
3. Future tech architecture – Data Management
4. Future tech architecture – Reporting & Analytics
5. Implementation Roadmap

This service can be tailored as needed. Assessment will be remote + in-person.

Optional: We conduct sessions on Azure's AI and data engineering platform capabilities in context of the assessment. Using our implementation services after the assessment is optional.
