The White Noise Problem

For most businesses the abundance of data adds up to a cloud of white noise, (a.k.a. Information Overload). As a business professional, we sense that there’s answers in the data, but accessing it, teasing it out, requires resources, frequently scarce resources. 

Figuring out what's most valuable, critical, or actionable using manual techniques take time to process.  New spreadsheets are built (often from scratch), models tested, and finally results provided. And, then reality hits. All too frequently, by the time you get the answer either (A) you forgot why the question was so important in the first place, or (B) something else is more urgent has landed on the desk. The spreadsheet approach simply does not work. They offer a one-off perspective, a static snapshot that required time and labor to construct.  Most disconcerting an IBM audit, back in 2009, uncovered that 85% of spreadsheets have significant errors in them that skewed the results.  Just because you see it on your computer does not mean its accurate!

 

The Growth of Data

Data problems are not going to go away. The multiple sources, volumes, and dimensions will only continue to grow.  Some data source companies offer analytics solutions that are narrowly focused one type of data source. But this singular approach falls short, leaving an organization in the dark, unable of putting the entire picture together, to address the challenge facing businesses today.
