Advanced Data Analytics

What exactly is data analytics and how can it help your business?

Many businesses are producing and consuming mountains of data each day, whether they realise it or not. Simply put, data analytics is all about finding ways to capture this data and convert it into meaningful insights in order to drive some form of business change. Data analytics has become a very hot topic of late as businesses become more data-driven, to the point where data is now considered the “new oil”. We only have to look to our tech giants Google and Facebook to understand the true value of data.

Okay, so you may not aspire to become the next Google or Facebook, but that doesn’t mean you won’t benefit from data analytics. Here’s where we come in.

How can we help? By:

  • Carefully examine your business to identify new, innovative ways to become a more data-driven organisation

  • Choosing the most appropriate technology to manage your data

  • Performing a data quality assessment to increase the reliability of your business insights

  • Conducting data exploration to identify hidden “nuggets”, patterns you may not have realised even exist

  • Developing advanced data visualisations to sell your story

Some of the technologies we work with:

Apache Spark, MongoDB, Microsoft Azure CosmosDB, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle Database, Apache Kafka, Microsoft PowerBi, Tableau, Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics, Microsoft Azure Databricks

Industrial Integration

The fourth industrial revolution (affectionately known as Industry 4.0) has resulted in devices becoming more connected than ever before. From the watch on your wrist to the latest kit in a new manufacturing plant, they are all generating enormous volumes of data very quickly. This data is extremely valuable for its ability to deliver extensive insight into your business operations.

Industrial integration is a particularly exciting field, and we can help identify solutions that turn raw data into meaningful insights.

How can we help?

  • We partner with PTC Kepware, a global organisation who specialises in providing software to bridge the gap between Information Systems and Operational Technology.

  • We are Citect SCADA Certified Experts (CSCE). We can help you implement Citect solutions which focus on the “here and now” of your factory.

Like it or not, the days of clear demarcation between IT and OT systems are long gone.

Integrated Software Solutions

Just like the shoes on your feet, there often isn’t a “one-size-fits-all” when it comes to software.  We understand that businesses are unique and often require a software solution tailored to how you do business.  

Integrated applications are often referred to as the “digital glue” in the corporate world, helping to bridge the gap between our business processes and corporate systems, or even between colossal corporate systems themselves.  While we aren’t out to develop the next Microsoft Office suite or SAP, we are aiming to provide integrated software solutions that help fill the gaps.  One example is our hydroponic mobile application, which enabled a farmer to monitor his crop remotely.

How can we help?

  • Mobile application development (iOS and Android)

  • Web application development (cloud and on-premises solutions including Microsoft PowerApps)

  • Software integration solutions, enabling your existing systems to communicate

  • Business-to-business integration solutions
