Need data & analytics help?
Manual spreadsheet processes slowing you down
-
Time is lost producing regular reports.
-
There is common data but each member of staff obtains it in their own way so there is duplication of effort and inconsistency in the output.
-
Reports are usually in spreadsheet form, awkward to find and can't be combined to form the 'bigger picture'.
Difficult to exchange info between departments
​​
-
There is no standard format nor location used to share information across departments or with external parties.
-
It's difficult to find out whether data is already available elsewhere within your organisation.
-
You have to wait for colleagues to pick up an email every time you need some info.
Can't commit to permanent analytics resource
​​
-
Your organisation may understand the value of analytics but can't commit to hiring permanent staff at this time.
-
You want to remove the usual lead-time associated with interviewing, on-boarding and training.
-
You want analytics quickly and without an expensive IT project.

"Dark Spark were able to quickly get up to speed and understand our data and produced excellent dashboards for us.
They were very proactive...and went beyond the brief to make suggestions on how we could do more with the data available.
Dark Spark were a pleasure to work with."

“The team were really focused on their tasks and operated in an extremely professional manner.
Not only did they exceed what I was hoping for as an end product, but they took the framework that we provided and have set the bar really high for what might come next.”
