Company

We divide the data value chain into Data Foundations and Data Exploitation. We help our customers extract the most value from their data by starting with the often overlooked Data Foundations. Data projects will fail unless the Data Foundations are in place. 

Once these are in place we help customers deliver the business value they require from their data. We do this through a team of data experts using Envitia software or integrating 3rd party or open source components.
