For 20+ years, the common themes across my career have been technology, data and intelligence. As a special operations soldier in the United States Army, responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating intelligence I learned the importance of “separating the signal from the noise” which meant: – – Learning to parse disparate, “unrelated,” data to understand the big picture– Sorting true outliers from the start of new trends– And honing a deep appreciation for use-cases as our North StarFrom there, my career took me to a number of technology firms, the Department of Homeland Security, and the intelligence community, leading software teams and working my way up to executive management.𝐌𝐲 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬:– improving situational awareness– determining future possibilities– and recommending appropriate action Today, my team and I apply those same skills and principles to optimizing/managing data and developing software products that both enables and automates decision making for our clients. To do so, we:– Embed with your team– Learn your data, KPIs, OKRs, and use-cases…simply put, we learn your business– And then work with you, to create the right solutions for your business needsSimply put - if the data is available to support the use case, we can help "mine" it and develop the right approach/product to get the insight or decision making capabilities needed by the business.As a result, our clients are able to better understand their customers, financials, and supply chain logistics, reduce their risk and compliance overhead, and enjoy the benefits of descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive analytics.𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐮𝐬:– Have a high volume of data—both structured and unstructured – Believe “data is the new oil,” but lack the internal resources or outside perspective to fully activate and use it effectively – And are looking for a partner who cares as much about their project as they do If that’s you – we’d love to speak with you and your team.𝐓𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞:– Message me here on LinkedIn– Visit our website: https://www.verstand.ai/ – Or email me at michael@verstand.ai
