Berkshire Solutions, Example Project

Teams inside of IBM have relied on Berkshire Solutions for custom data management and business analytics solutions for more than 20 years. We have designed, built, deployed, and managed more than two dozen large business analytics environments for IBM TSS. When IBM TSS needed a new revenue management solution for their maintenance services business unit Berkshire was there to build it for them. In less than 3 months, we were delivering insight into IBM Hardware exiting warranties, but without an extended maintenance contract in place to protect the customers investment.  Berkshire extrapolated from the data past purchase history, hardware life span, replacement cost, industry data, along with the customer’s stated purpose for the hardware in order to extrapolate high-value opportunities for both direct sales teams and IBM’s business partner community.  The solution calculated the value proposition to the customer, demonstrating the need to invest in a preventative maintenance contract. Within six months the ROI on IBM’s investment was achieved!

We work with you to expand your capabilities, to design meaningful solutions for your business that help you grow, while at the same time controlling cost.

Analytics Package Development Phased Approach

We build actionable analytics solutions. Analytics today go far beyond just measuring KPI's -- We work data to:

• Show you where and why change is occurring.

• Record data for rich meaningful trend awareness.

• Overlay economic and market data to guide understanding & uncover opportunities to grow.

• Leverage dark data to expose threats and opportunities.

• Integrate inventory with partners to seamlessly reach more customers.

• Develop statistical models to predict purchase behavior.

• Build value propositions for your customers, so they know why to invest.

• Predictive maintenance models so key infrastructure remains operational.

We take a comprehensive approach, that's iterative, thus rapidly capable of producing results quickly, allowing you to achieve an ROI on your investment much faster than standard in-house development teams could provide.

Phase One,(1) Research, I.D. data sources, both internal and external, that are meaningful to your mission. (2) Corral data sources into a secure data environment.
