InSpark Analytics

We do data and analytics consulting.

We offer elegant, forward-thinking solutions that protect investments and cut costs.

‍

We help organizations transform their data and analytics abilities through strategy development, and tactical project implementations.

Our digital transformation services move valuable business insights from closed-proprietary licenses like SAS to open source licensing like Python and Scala.

We help business democratize their analytics delivery through establishing strategic initiatives such as Centres of Excellence, Open Source Program Offices, and Governance Programs.

InSpark’s consultants and data scientists transform companies’ data ecologies to help them achieve their strategic objectives through four main services:

Analytics Centre of Excellence

An Analytics Centre of Excellence or COE is a team of skilled knowledge workers whose mission is to provide the organization they work for with best practices around a particular area of interest.

COEs are often created when there is a knowledge deficit or skills gap within an organization. An important goal of a center of excellence is to eliminate inefficiency and help move the organization to the next level of a maturity model. InSpark Analytics can help you determine the best COE for your organization.

Data Governance Programs

Data governance is a set of principles and practices that ensure high quality through the complete life-cycle of data. Some of the principles of data governance help ensure that data is fit for purpose, accessible, understandable, defined, consistent, accurate, clean, and governed with traceable lineage.

This builds foundational trust in the data. InSpark Analytics can help you set up the practices and programs of data governance: data ownership, stewards and custodians, working with organizational changes, and forming a DG committee.

Open Source Program Office

Because InSpark Analytics works with open source technologies, we can help you develop an Open Source Strategy as the first step to realize tangible benefits of open source initiatives.

Setting up an Open Source Program Office is key to managing your open source programs and projects. An OSPO is an asset to support and education the organization and InSpark Analytics can help you with your Open Source journey.

Technical Consulting

InSpark Analytics project offers both professional services in the form of strategic and tactical technical consulting.

We listen to you and work with you to solve your business problems, and drive benefits throughout your organization. We can administer your data science platforms, develop solutions, refactor your existing programs, and unlock value.

Our Values

We love the Four-Way Test, written by Herbert J. Taylor and adopted by Rotary International. It is elegant and straightforward and forms the basis of our decision making every day at InSpark Analytics.

We ask ourselves:

Is it the truth?
Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
Is it fair to all concerned?
Will it be beneficial for all concerned?
