Which decision needs evidence?
For example, understanding a change, comparing periods or investigating factors related to an outcome.
Data analysis · Modelling
We analyse and model data to answer a concrete question. We deliver findings, assumptions and limits your team can review.
What we have learned in the field
Sales can mean invoiced, collected or shipped. If that is not clear, any model built on top inherits the error.
Before concluding, we check the boring parts: duplicate records, dates in another format, missing months. That is where the surprises usually are.
Two things rising together does not mean one causes the other. We separate what the data shows from what is still a hypothesis.
A simple model the team understands is often more useful than a complex one nobody can explain. We choose based on the question.
How we work with data
We review sources, explore patterns and model relationships to explain what the data shows and what to investigate next.
Quality, structure and available data
Distributions, relationships and outliers
Hypotheses, assumptions and limits
Evidence to inform a decision
Conceptual schematic with simulated data. Associations are interpreted in context and do not demonstrate causation.
How we move forward
We say clearly what the results show and what they do not.
The question and the decision it could change.
Sources, quality and relationships in the data.
Findings, assumptions and next steps.
A practical question
Two figures can differ because of their periods, sources or definitions. Before modelling, we connect each metric to its meaning so comparisons make sense.
What your team can review
Relevant data, definitions, quality issues and limitations that may affect the answer.
Variables, transformations, assumptions and results documented to the agreed scope, so the team can follow the reasoning.
An explanation of patterns, uncertainties and further questions connected to the decision behind the work.
When it makes sense
Before automating, scaling or investing in another solution.
There is plenty of data, but it is hard to turn it into a useful answer
Different indicators seem to tell different stories
The team wants to identify factors associated with an outcome
A hypothesis needs to be examined before making a decision
Before we talk
We can start with a question and a map of available information. It does not all need to be organised beforehand.
For example, understanding a change, comparing periods or investigating factors related to an outcome.
List systems, spreadsheets or reports and who can explain their fields. No need to send them in the first conversation.
Bring indicator definitions and examples of differences across teams, periods or sources.
Let's talk
Tell us the question and where the data lives. No need to send it yet.
