Transforming ideas into reality

Analytics Design & Development

We use Business Analytics to help your business plan, monitor and perform.

Our solutions help you look forwards not just backwards in the rear view mirror.

We have genuine industry experience

Having held senior management positions in leading organisations, we have faced the problems our customers are facing every day, this gives us a real appreciation of the realities of getting to grips with Business Analytics.

Start where you need to

All businesses are at a different level of maturity with their data, reporting, planning systems and processes. No matter where you are on this journey we are here to help advise and give you the benefit of our experience.

We simply call these stages See, Plan, Predict, Automate.

Case Study

Sports Direct – Improving Planning and Performance

Sports Direct are the leading sports retailer for apparel, shoes and equipment….

We were engaged to provide a top down, collaborative planning solution to help the buying team at Sports Direct to collaborate and fulfil customer demand, whilst at the same time not over ordering or carrying too much stock

We implemented an IBM Planning Analytics solution in the cloud, to allow remote teams of buyers to ensure that the correct levels of stock were ordered to meet the approved company budgets, across a very broad range of product classes from Football boots to Homewares.

As a result, the buying budgets are now aligned across the business, and the teams are working to a common goal. Stock levels are much improved, and trading performance has benefitted from less forced stock clearance.

As a large enterprise it’s dependent on its business systems providing transactional data for business users to make key decisions and understand the performance of the business. NYK worked with DeeperThanBlue to upgrade an old version of Cognos which was going out of support.
