Frequently Asked Questions
What is a data strategy?
A data strategy is a plan that defines how your organization will collect, manage, and use data to achieve business objectives. It includes data governance, technology choices, team capabilities, and prioritized initiatives with measurable outcomes.
How long does a data strategy engagement take?
A focused assessment and roadmap typically takes 4-8 weeks. This includes stakeholder interviews, current state analysis, and a prioritized implementation plan with clear milestones and resource requirements.
What's the difference between data strategy and business strategy?
Business strategy defines overall company goals and direction. Data strategy focuses specifically on how data enables those goals—what data to collect, how to manage it, and what capabilities to build. We connect both so data initiatives drive real business outcomes.
Do I need a data strategy before building infrastructure?
Not always, but it helps avoid wasted effort. A lightweight strategy engagement can identify quick wins and prevent building systems that don't address actual business needs. Even a few days of strategic planning pays dividends.
How do you assess AI readiness?
We evaluate your data quality, availability, and relevance for AI use cases. We assess team capabilities, infrastructure readiness, and whether AI is actually the right solution versus simpler approaches. We give you an honest assessment, not hype.
