Data Mining Escort: a progressive series to ensure data mining project success

Ensure Data Mining Success Through Collaboration

Just as a home builder would not consider construction before surveying the site and receiving blueprints, a data mining project is highly susceptible to collapse without a thorough assessment and resulting plan. An experienced escort can maneuver around elusive pitfalls and provide guidance through a complex discovery process.

A Staged Progression of Consultative Products

The Modeling Agency holds a philosophy that successful data mining projects involve a collaborative effort between the enterprise and the data mining expert. To that end, The Modeling Agency has developed an innovative consultative progression which provides an immediate starting point, reduced risk, and clearly defined stages which make the collaborative effort easier to visualize, justify, budget and purchase.

To that end, TMA has developed a structured progression designed to:

• Establish an immediate starting point with a clear yet flexible process for data mining
• Reduce start up costs via a compartmentalized progression
• Reduce risk through early reporting and actionable results at the conclusion of each stage
• Distribute knowledge between the collaborative team through a workshop-oriented progression to ensure redundant support capabilities
• Provide "consultative products" with fixed, firm prices; making a cooperative effort easier to visualize, justify, budget and purchase
• Ensure project success based on effective management of expectations and highly effective data mining project management principles

Four Primary Stages

The staged progression of assessments, reports and workshops, is designed to follow a proven model for achieving productive results early and efficiently.

• Data Mining Project Assessment
• Data Exploration Package
• Knowledge Discovery Package
• Information Modeling Package
