Data analytics is all about optimizing data, insights, and better decision-making, but there’s a lot that go wrong especially internally. It’s not the first thing people think of when it comes to analytics which leads to costly mistakes, wasted resources, and frustration. Little things like response times and updating the team can have drastic effects on the overall process, so what exactly goes wrong?

  • What is the response time between collaborators/teams? Are deadlines and 
  • Can anything be automated? Are there any human errors that put projects at risk? 
  • Is there a training process or lesson that will fill 

Any business handling data needs to build a foundation for effective collaboration and efficient management of tools or you risk inaccurate, delayed results.
