“I had settled into my new role as a ‘Head of Data Science’ and realized that it would be helpful to develop a data strategy, with a plan to exploit the data to its full capacity. However, I didn’t know where to start. I engaged with Samir Sharma and datazuum to start off the process and they were able to give an independent assessment of data maturity with a thorough plan on how to exploit our data assets.
Samir’s approach to developing our data strategy was to understand the business strategy and challenges the business faced and then develop plans on how data can help with these objectives. It was refreshing to have a consultancy that looked at the underlying business issues rather than delve straight into the IT solutions.”
