DAMVAD Analytics

In many organizations, analysis is too simple to generate real value It is often based on business intelligence, that does not really tell you what to do and why It is a reactive monitoring approach, and the methodologies applied are not advanced enough to generate valid answers

Our approach enables you to understand what happened; why it happened; and what will happen, all from applying sophisticated, predictive analytics We apply econometrics, machine learning as well as other statistical methods, and assist you in finding answers to proceed with confidence and insights which will be valuable in both external and internal processes We give you the tools you need to answer the question about which course of action you should take in order to fulfil your organizational goals And which predictive KPIs to monitor if you want to know whether or not you are moving in the right direction

• Econometric impact analysis of investments, policy initiatives, or business sectors
• Assess graduate labor market success for education institutions, optimizing student retainment and completion
• Identify public or private sector R&D strongholds to invest in or collaborate with
• Forecasting of trade, industry and labor market dynamics
• Evaluation of education, labor market, innovation or business programs

We help you turn directions into actions

Rather than building a direction on existing beliefs and assumptions, we help executives gain a clear, evidence-based perspective on the world they interact in, and the impact of their activities Furthermore, we set direction by forcing the executives to determine the causal chain assumptions and define which data driven indicators should define success We call this data supported causal effect Based on our analytics we help you determine which steps to take in order to obtain the desired results For organisations working in a political environment, we assist you in handling stakeholders and making sure that the data and results are applicable in a political setting

• Define an evidence based long term direction
• Clarify the intervention logic and causal-effect chains
• Align data and analytics with strategic goals and causal-effect chains
• Develop your business model in order to maximise outcome from data

Collecting data is key

Data collection and preparation is crucial in developing a data driven business model and maximizing the benefits relevant to your strategy To generate value, it is imperative to be able to collect data, prepare it and merge it with other relevant data We collect and prepare structured and unstructured data by applying the most advanced quantitative techniques (such as NLP, machine learning, elastic search etc ) and qualitative techniques (such as observation studies, field studies, sociology and ethnography) We also create and update our own historical databases collected from public registries, open data sources, sensors, social media data, etc

• Identify high value data assets and recommend applications to maximize your value
• Assist in structuring data to be ready for analytics
• Structure unstructured data by applying machine learning and natural language processing
• Link and merge your data with DAMVAD Analytics' unique proprietary data as well as public register data, social media data and open data sources
