Consultants work directly with senior-level client partners to advise on business decisions by measuring in-market experiments using an industry-leading data science SaaS platform, Test & Learn®. Consultants work with clients across a range of industries to identify their key priorities, then design and run business experiments to establish which ideas work, where, when, and how to deploy them. This analytical partnership leads to a strong understanding of the full range of business challenges, from new product launches, marketing, loyalty, and pricing, to operations and strategy.
Sampling of questions we help our clients answer:

Apply qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques using our enterprise applications (e.g., Hadoop, Spark, Kafka, NiFi, Python, Impala, and more) to synthesize analyses into clear recommendations and impactful narratives.
Sampling of questions we help our clients answer:
- How does a financial institution's fraud/authorization metrics fare against competitors, and what are strategies that can help it be best-in-class?
