Comprehensive Data Analysis for Effective BEC Solutions

Our detailed data analysis process covers every step, from data deployment to in-depth analysis, ensuring clarity and precision.

Deployment & Ingestion

We deploy tools on-premises, in the cloud, or in our lab to gather an initial data inventory and identify high-level findings.

Textual Analysis

Our AI technology, combined with expert analysts, reviews and analyzes data up to six times to ensure all responsive elements are captured accurately.

Element Coupling

We leverage Data Subject Access Requests (DSAR) to connect various data elements, identify naming variants, and ensure a comprehensive analysis.

Collapse Related Entries

Each responsive file is collapsed down to a single entry per individual, improving reliability and avoiding having to sift through millions of responsive elements

Review Format & Publish

A final review of report formatting to publishing the final findings, ensures your expectations were met
