Their crew is several orders of magnitude better
technically than most of their competitors.
People don’t realize what that means. It’s a big deal.”
— Head of Enterprise Business Intelligence
More than just another data and analytics consulting firm
I wouldn’t be able to replicate their people one-to-one…
I’d need a business architect AND a tech lead. Or I’d need
a project manager AND a technical architect. They do bring
a unique background and unique skillsets to the table.”
— Head of Enterprise Business Intelligence
It’s amazing how many of them can write complex code
and two minutes later have a sound trade-off discussion
with the business.”
— Sr. Director, Business Intelligence
They’ve been there and done it over and over again.
They know where the potholes are. They know what
approaches work and what approaches don’t work.”
— Director of Information Technology
It’s a very personal organization… not like a
[large IT company] … It feels like they have a
vested interest in our success.”
