Enterprises now more than ever have to build business resilience and ensure continuity in the face of the situation. With renewed focus, enterprise need to re-imagine the way they work to stabilize and take control of their business. Withstand impact, forecast, respond rapidly, adapt and recover better for the future. Data and insights can help build this resilience to help accelerate innovation, increase productivity, drive growth, reduce costs, mitigate risk and optimize asset utilization. Data and insights are strategic assets that helps the business learn about evolving opportunities, hidden threats, changing customer expectations and the competitive landscape, in context and in time to respond meaningfully. This, in turn, helps to automate the supply chain, drive continuous innovation, and create micro-moments based customer experience. Artificial Intelligence powers the core of this data-driven enterprise and creates signals that then act on the business to bring transformational value. And when this is enabled in a Do-it-Yourself culture, everyone, at any given time, is able to move quickly, in the right direction to defend, differentiate and even reimagine the business.
We help our clients adopt this approach to ubiquitously create value from data.
We move them away from the conventional use case or point solution-led approach, towards the path to building industrialized capabilities to monetize data. We begin by creating an integrated blueprint of opportunities - unique to their business - for data-led value creation. Thereon we chart the roadmap to incrementally build the capabilities they need to deliver on the blueprint. This involves:
Modernization entails releasing data and insights hidden in the legacy landscape to create a flexible mesh of foundational services. This foundation can then be decomposed into components that can be dynamically organized in several ways and automated to deliver against an evolving context. This also often necessitates divesting or modernizing the legacy systems that lie at the core of the enterprise. For example, recently, we worked with a retail mortgage bank, to advance their ability to generate credit scores for potential customers and process applications in real time. We reengineered their credit acquisition decision engine and also transformed their legacy mainframe environment to improve its agility. Today, the bank generates applicant credit scores in less than 50 milliseconds.
Having released data from the core, the next task is to digitize the data supply chain and turn it into an asset that can be interpreted cognitively and leveraged for making data-led decisions across the enterprise. We do this for several of our clients in the retailing business. We work to make sense of their structured and unstructured data around consumer actions, response to promotions, SmartLabel scans, product affinities, customer propensities, along with price and promotion sensitivities. We then use machine learning models to improve the recommendation logic for their real-time product promotions.
We put to use several Artificial Intelligence models to solve business problems in an expert-assist, near-fully automated mode. This allows for continuous learning and continuous improvement to be factored into both validated and new models. A case in point is how this is delivering value for our clients in the financial services business. We deploy AI techniques to detect anomalies in data values and transaction volumes that point to suspicious events and then alert decision-makers to potentially fraudulent activities. We even study these patterns to predict incidents and enable just-in-time prevention of irregularities.
With this approach, enterprises can build a fabric for data to become the new internet connecting all the dots that matter, the driver of all enterprise decisions, and the advantage that everybody has equal access to. And, with that, it will not be data that differentiates the winning enterprises from the also-rans. It will be people - amplified by this data, to be able to make connections unseen before, to find problems unarticulated before, and to build solutions that solve the unsolvable, through collaborative relationships that benefit consumers in ways unexplored.
Our framework includes the following offerings:
Data MonetizationData Monetization to discover and realize new insights-led opportunities, which are unique to the business, to improve the work they are already doing, and also innovate in unexplored dimensions.
Analytics to cover the whole spectrum of Analytics work done in an organization, from Insights and Modeling to AI and ML.
Data Operations to build automation-driven, scalable platforms for optimized data operations and managed services.
GDPR to enable organizations to be GDPR ready by leveraging our end to end framework - Assess, Define, Administer and Manage.
