Project delivery
Data analysis
Systematic and repeated profiling of large datasets can be prone to human error and can be extremely labour intensive. Whether in preparation for new project implementations, or part of business-as-usual activity, Kagool can help your organisation to profile datasets across disparate IT landscape systems, consolidate the results, and provide relevant and accurate reports on status to
give you actionable strategic insight.
Having extensive experience delivering projects involving over 30 IT systems and over 500 business data rules across data volumes that exceed ten billion records, we have highly efficient industrialised solutions that can consume and profile huge data volumes, measure data quality and root out error states to teams for remediation and correction.
Our error states reporting solutions give you online, metric-driven and detailed accounts of your aggregated data, and enable you to drill right down to the heart of your data quality issues to solve or override them at source, directly from one of our online solutions.
Data migration and integration
Our transparent and tested migration and integration processes have been proven in the world’s most challenging industries.
Data is an increasingly integral component affecting your organisation’s bottom line: modern competitive organisations rely on data to automate processes and to drive efficiency.
Whether it’s the automated augmentation of customer profiles, or managing complex vendor relationships in your global manufacturing supply chain, your data offers its own intrinsic value as well as extrinsic risk to profitability should your data be managed incorrectly. Migrating your data from legacy systems or integrating new systems into your existing data landscape can therefore have an immediate effect on your business. It is still surprising how many organisations underestimate the impact of these activities until it all goes wrong.
We at Kagool have developed proven and robust systems for migrating and integrating datasets across a vast array of IT platforms and landscapes.
Our transparent and visible approach ensures that your business can monitor and track migration and integration activities, so that your transitions are assured and safe.
Kagool are also proven at rescuing and returning ownership of distressed data work streams from existing Systems Integration Partners, putting your business firmly back in control of your migration activities.
Kagool is recognised in the industry for high levels of diligence, governance, accuracy and customer satisfaction in Data Migration and Integration solutions.
Our proven approach ensures that:
- The end to end process is clear, transparent and visible to all
- All data validations are reported and actionable processes are integral to the process
- All loaded data should be reconciled against what was sent
- A separate end-point reconciliation process should run in parallel to ensure that the source and target systems remain in continuous alignment across the IT landscape
Kagool has developed a master data end-point reconciliation solution that ensures the integrity of master data across complex IT landscapes ensuring pro-active error reporting and remediation of master data interface failures, preventing costly reactive approaches when transactional data failures occur.
Dashboard analytics
We provide dashboards that give you strategic value.
Making sense of your raw business data, transforming this data into information with functional utility, and then using this information to provide actionable insight is a major challenge for all organisations.
What questions should you ask of your data? How do you extrapolate behavioural trends from your data? What predictive data will help to indicate, diagnose and remedy problems in your processes even before they occur? How can you exploit your data for advantage over your competitors?
Dashboards come in many shapes and sizes: Qlikview, Tableau, APEX, to name but a few. Many consultancies can create dashboards containing graphs, pie charts, clickthrough's and drill-downs, but these dashboards quickly become redundant if they can’t provide strategic value behind the visual layer.
Kagool has vast cross-sector experience providing data-driven dashboarding solutions from poorly utilised existing landscape datasets, helping companies gain competitive advantage through expert data and behavioural consultancy.
Our solutions are strategy-driven, and are a result of rigorous collaborative relationships with clients to understand their business processes, challenges and aspirations, in order to create end dashboards that provide answers to the questions that many businesses didn’t know they needed to ask.
MDM implementation
As your business continually generates data, without robust data governance techniques, your data is prone to inaccuracy and deterioration. Whether your business relies on accurate data for business-as-usual processes, or for predictive or strategic analysis, any degradation in the quality of your data will also ultimately lead to the degradation of your organisational effectiveness.
It is surprisingly common for simple master data errors in complex customised ERP environments to result in a cessation in transactional processing that often goes unnoticed until the problem manifests itself in the physical world, for example when your production line stops. This is why we at Kagool view MDM solutions, not as a system where master data is simply created and stored, but as a comprehensive system of enterprise data integrity measurements that continuously verifies that your master data is doing what it is expected to do.
We can help you to:
- Establish best-practice driven organisation governance models including roles and responsibilities for managing your data
- Model your business processes to manage your data, and provide guidance on implementing an effective IT solution
- Create and enforce standards for your data so that your data stays unified, consistent, precise and reliable
- Track, remediate and halt the proliferation of erroneous data
- Create data cleansing routines based on quality standards and your business rules.
- Provide these bespoke and ready-made robust IT solutions cost-effectively
