The Creative Data Difference

At Creative Data, we're Business Performance Management specialists. That means we'll do what it takes to make sure your users get acceptable, measureable, and predictable performance from your corporate information systems, day after day. We'll do what it takes to make sure that users have what they need, when they need it.

Business Performance Management (BPM) is a combination of several important things, and it's our skill with all of these together that you'll appreciate. 

• Architecture and design: the work that we do is well thought out and resilient in the face of change. Systems designed by Creative Data stand the test of time. Our attention to detail means "no surprises"
  
• Archiving, discovery and reporting: It's not news that there is an information explosion. We're moving past "terabytes" before some people learn what that word means! We'll work to understand your business and legal requirements for information retention, then implement archiving strategies that meet those goals. Just as important, we'll make sure you can get the information back, too, when you need it again
  
• Training, mentoring, knowledge transfer, communication: there's no ego here. We want you to know what we know, and be fully up to speed when we're done. Constant communication during engagements, combined with knowledge transfer, lets us accomplish that

You can't just declare yourself a BPM expert – you have to earn that. And that's what we've done at Creative Data. Since we began in 1995, we've been in the middle of large, corporate systems. For years, we designed and built large corporate Data Warehouses and web-enabled information systems for Fortune 500 companies. With every system we delivered, however, we found ourselves at a beginning instead of an ending. Our systems worked great, but there were constant roadblocks to overall corporate rollout: integration problems, performance problems as systems merged and evolved, and so on. We found that we were spending as much time with our fingers in other systems as we were with our own, all to help our customers. Over time we moved from large-scale data warehouse development to the broader role of Business Performance Management experts, by making end-to-end systems work as intended. And our customers are glad we did!
