Evolution | the MIP Methodology

MIP's proven data management record spans fourteen years of successful delivery. The key to this success is the combination of industry leading technology, innovative technique, and a rigorous application of our methodology.

Data Analysis & Data Quality

While organisations today are being enabled to make fast decisions, we frequently find that those decisions are being made using inaccurate data. MIP enables organisations to collect, organise and act upon information that is based on accurate data. At MIP we believe that if you cannot measure your data quality you cannot manage your data. The process of information quality improvement is one of continuous process improvement of any and all processes, to eliminate the causes of defective data.

Data Integration

A vital key to turning data into intelligence is integrating the data you have, wherever its location and whatever its format. MIP’s ETL services encompass all stages of the ETL life cycle from requirements gathering and designs, through to implementation and ongoing support. Our senior consulting team specialises in getting ETL projects off to a quick start and can either lead your entire decision support project or simply provide specialised assistance at a critical stage of any project.

Data Warehousing & Business Intelligence

Getting accurate and timely management information is crucial to successful decision making in most businesses. Data warehousing is the cornerstone of this process, however it is also a process fraught with risk. Many Data Warehouse Solutions fail to deliver on an on-going basis because the initial design of both the architecture and infrastructure are carried out incorrectly or because the warehouse simply does not meet the needs of the business and lacks its support.

The key to success both in the short and long term is getting the earliest iterations designed and implemented correctly, while involving the business as much as possible in the process.

Information Management Strategies

Large and small transaction, decision, and collaborative processing applications in all organisations today must comply with privacy and security legislation, and best practice guidelines. Corporate mergers, acquisitions, and reorganizations increase the complexity of data storage and transmission systems, complexity may result in increased information security risks. Understanding information security risks and implementing mitigation strategies requires qualified, trusted and experienced information security practitioners and is not a simple task. The MIP consulting team has the specialised knowledge and experience to understand your information security environment and apply MIP’s risk management methodology to design and implement information security strategies to secure our clients’ information assets.
