Comprehensive data strategy development typically takes 6-12 weeks, including stakeholder interviews, current state assessment, strategy formulation, and roadmap creation. Implementation can take 12-36 months depending on scope.
Yes! Even SMBs benefit from data strategy. It doesn't need to be as comprehensive as enterprise strategies, but having a clear data vision and roadmap prevents costly mistakes and ensures you're building the right foundation.
I start by deeply understanding your business strategy, objectives, and challenges. Then I work backward to identify how data can support those goals. Regular checkpoints with business leaders ensure ongoing alignment.
ROI comes from avoiding costly mistakes, prioritizing high-impact initiatives, accelerating time-to-value, and ensuring investments align with business needs. Clients typically see 3-5x return through better decision-making and operational efficiency.
Absolutely! Strategy is only valuable if executed. I can stay involved during implementation as an advisor, help recruit and build your data team, or take hands-on implementation roles for specific projects.
