CONNECT assists clients in building sustainable, high-performing business intelligence/data warehouse teams.
We concentrate on building the right team, focusing on the right results, and creating a productive environment. Our approach incorporates both the "hard" and "soft" components of exemplary business intelligence/data warehouse teams. Depending on the client's needs, we can provide assistance in the following areas:
Building the Right Team
- Define roles and responsibilities
- Inventory the skills and career aspirations of the existing team
- Determine skill / staffing gaps
- Define appropriate full-time staff roles
- Provide consulting resources
- Provide right-to-hire candidates
- Provide permanent candidates
Focusing on the Right Results
- Understand business goals and objectives
- Educate business constituents on data warehousing
- Establish metrics and goals for the team
- Define appropriate milestones and deliverables
- Clarify roles and responsibilities with the team
Creating a Productive Environment
- Define methods, techniques and processes
- Establish standards and procedures
- Support tool and technology evaluations and decisions
- Create positive team dynamics
- Establish productive relationships between IT and business constituents
- Refine inter-intra-team information flows
- Measure and improve team culture to achieve high performance
Our success is driven by our ability to quickly develop an in-depth understanding of the business problem, the functional and technical requirements of the project, and the client timeframe. Our Knowledge Network includes many of the most experienced data warehousing consultants. We then CONNECT our clients with the right people, tools, and methodologies to ensure optimized performance and business results.
CONNECT: The Knowledge Network delivers customized methodology, tool, and people solutions to address business, technical, data, and organizational challenges in Business Intelligence.
"Some of the large, national consulting firms throw resumes at you, switch resources and disappear once the contract is signed. That has NOT been my experience with CONNECT. CONNECT has the depth of understanding to provide guidance and to find the right people. Their screening process is excellent and they don?t just place the people, they help build a team. Throughout our project, they paid attention and made helpful suggestions on how to constantly improve our process, our team and our data warehousing initiative. Their range of services was valuable to us as we grew our program from the beginning to where we are today."
