Insight Lab

Data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning all buzzwords we are hearing more and more often. Their definitions have been bastardised by marketing departments the world over, however, due to the increase in the data available to organisations, the lower cost and higher availability of processing that data, and genuine advances in the field of artificial intelligence, there are great gains to be had for businesses of all sizes in investing in this area.
Rittman Mead's Insight Lab is a data science service that provides a lightweight starting point to gain insights and understanding of how your data can help you before embarking on large scale data science projects.
Introducing data science into your business will not only require an understanding of relevant tools, processes and technologies, but also an understanding of the underlying data, where it comes from and your business processes. For any analytics work, the first stumbling block is always obtaining, tidying and transforming the source data. With our experience in both data engineering and building machine learning models, we can offer an end-to-end advisory service.
We will advise which metrics and/or data would best impact your business, this is why our initial engagement is centred around understanding your business processes and available data.

Assess

Our team will work with you to identify and validate possible machine learning avenues. This will include specific business processes you wish to improve, possible prediction or optimisation techniques, alternative use cases, success criteria, and measurable business improvement.

Define

Next, using the types of data sources you have available to you as well as any public or external resources, our analysts will define the dataset required for your use case. We will determine what infrastructure and technology will be most applicable to your needs and outline our methodology and timeframes. Engagement will be carried out with your key stakeholders to confirm the above and define acceptance criteria.

Prepare

Our team of expert data engineers prepares, cleans and standardises your data to make it ready for statistical modelling. This includes creating a data profile report including completeness, accessibility, and any identified data issues.

Model

We use state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms to predict future events, segment customers, suggest next best actions and more.

Deploy

Finally, we deliver a production-ready model via an API for maximum compatibility with any data architecture. Our model APIs can be hosted on-premises or in the cloud.
