Our focus

Contemporary Analysis (CAN) is your “data visionary” to see what is over the horizon with big data. We help companies use their data to do more with less. Our strategy and vision help you drive the solutions needed to achieve your goal(s).

Our Process

Innovate

Most companies improve old processes and call it Innovation. True Innovation, however, requires new processes to be successful. CAN helps build those new processes by providing expertise and guidance to help organizations dream bigger than just improvement.

Train

CAN helps you build and teach your team the necessary skills (both soft and technical) to perform and manage information-driven decision making. We help identify current employees that can be cross-trained as well as help you design your hiring and management system to attract and retain outside talent.

Incubate

Project incubation is a critical, often skipped step. Project Incubation is CAN working alongside your team to give you support while your team learns how to build data science. As your team ramps up its skills and ability, we will ramp down and transition more of the work to you. This gives you the stability to learn without losing momentum.

Mentor

Once your organization has a team that is trained and able, CAN steps into a mentor/peer role giving the reins back to the organization. We then help with overflow projects, temporary data scientist needs, and strategic knowledge. This gives your team the bravado to keep building without fear of failing.

We help businesses of all sizes to increase visibility, drive more traffic and improve commercial success.

Business Intelligence

For most companies, Business Intelligence is the first step in working with data. It is not simply reporting with pictures, but an understanding of what is happening right now so you can make decisions from it.

Machine Learning

Machine Learning is a solution that can turn weeks or months of work into a few minutes. Frequently companies are confused where Machine Learning stops and Artificial Intelligence begins.

Predictive Analytics

Predictive analytics has been a cornerstone of Contemporary Analysis (CAN) since we first started over a decade ago. Prediction gives organizations the ability to “hit” more often than “miss”.

Data Warehouse/Data Lake

As companies begin to generate mountains of data, the storage of that data becomes more important than ever. The days of segmenting your business into silos and cutting all ties are hindering your progress.

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is the pinnacle of data driven decision making. Many companies aspire to find the path that leads them to insight they have never seen before, through AI.

Reporting & Dashboards

Reporting is nothing more than the keeping of records, or it should be anyway. Over the years we have found instances where the data being collected has no direction or rhyme or reason to it. We even had an experience where someone was smashing random letters on a keyboard to get to the next screen for data entry. The result was tens of thousands of records with unusable gibberish.

Data Science in-a-box

Data Science In-a-Box is as close to an “off the shelf” solution as you’ll get from us. We designed it to fit a need to buy a packaged deal and just get started.

Strategy & Vision

Most companies improve old processes and call it Innovation. CAN helps build a new vision of how your company can build new processes instead of just improving the old ones.

Research & Development

nvention is complicated and not everyone's forte. Contemporary Analysis (CAN) can operate as your R&D team to invent new ways to use your data and prove its value.

Data Science as a Service (DSaaS)

Sometimes you aren't ready for a full-time data science team. Not to worry, we can be your data science team until you’re ready to have your own internal team.

Model Maintenance

Our Model Maintenance program is designed to free your R&D data science team to do what they do best–invent. We keep your models working, tweaked to fit new data, and prepared for the usage by your entire company.

Training

At Contemporary Analysis we realized there is a better way to find these people. Instead of hiring a new data person, train from within. An external hire has a ramping phase where they will need to learn the systems, procedures, and even culture. An internal person already knows the company and is ready to go immediately.

Data Science Blocks

Occasionally you have a great data science need...but nobody to do the work. Data Science Blocks are pre-paid blocks of time that you can on demand. From hands on keyboards to do mundane tasks to highly complex solutions you're covered.

Custom Software Development

Sometimes ``Good enough`` isn't good enough. When we encounter a problem that needs a fresh take on the solution, we create custom software. Building on our data science principles we can partner to build something amazing.

Empower the great to build something greater.
