“The more data you can gather the better quality solution you can produce”: CBIG Consulting

“We focus exclusively on developing forward-thinking Business Intelligence (BI) services, and channels the growing power of Big Data with our CBIG Framework.”

Business intelligence is an umbrella term that refers to a variety of software applications used to analyze an organization’s raw data. BI as a discipline is made up of several related activities, including data mining, online analytical processing, querying and reporting. In our current world, using data analytics technologies and techniques to derive fact-based conclusions is the rule rather than the exception. Widely used in both commercial industries as well as in scientific research, data analytics enables organizations to make more informed business decisions, verify or disprove scientific models, and test theories and hypotheses.

Words from the President

“CBIG’s founders wanted to build a dynamic technology and data analytics practice that would offer our clients measurable opportunities to change, grow, and succeed in an increasingly competitive global world.  Its founding partners, all problem-solvers by nature, share a willingness to work together on common goals to adapt and grow as our solutions evolve with changing technology. It continues to this day.”

Let us introduce you to the company

CBIG Consulting’s partners launched the firm in 2002 to help businesses more effectively store, access, and manage their data assets. Although the team was successfully applying what was the prevailing technology at the time, they realized early on the firm had to break out of this confining space if the company wanted to grow. With an eye to the future, CBIG’s talented professionals worked to give new life to data assets, developing data analytics processes that would offer client enterprises a more accurate perspective of their business. CBIG consulting currently offers a wide range of Business Intelligence and Big Data Analytics consulting solutions to meet its clients evolving requirements.

CBIG is headquartered in the Chicago area, with additional offices in San Francisco, Boston, Denver, Austin, Raleigh, Irvine and Seattle in the U.S.; Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland and Singapore serving the Asia-Pacific region; and London serving the EMEA region.

Since its inception, CBIG has enjoyed working with businesses from many industry sectors. The company’s principals all attest that CBIG’s success rests on consistent customer satisfaction and enduring trust. Clients recognize the CBIG differentiator from other consulting groups is in its full life-cycle service model, a comprehensive framework stressing strategic consideration of a given challenge that leads to more thoughtful development and implementation of a forward  thinking, scalable solution.

“Our BI focus originates from the realization, during CBIG’s infancy, that the chaotic world of accessible, real-time data could be reorganized, analyzed, and leveraged in a revolutionary way to help your organization make more educated as well as more proactive decisions. We’ve consciously evolved our practice over several years by investing in education and technology, and by recruiting several leading consultants and thought leaders within the elite field of Business Intelligence and Big Data Analytics,” says President Todd Nash.

CBIG Consulting Surges past Previous Records for Revenue, New Clients in 2016

CHICAGO, IL (PRWEB) FEBRUARY 27, 2017

Global Business Intelligence and Data Analytics firm CBIG Consulting released its annual report for fiscal year 2016 in recent days, confirming that last year has been very good for them indeed. Co-founder Don Arendarczyk stated, “For the foreseeable future, data will be the biggest engine driving business innovation and growth. CBIG’s record revenues and number of new clients signed in 2016 are a testament to Big Data’s growing value in today’s global economy.”

Arendarczyk noted that the primary catalyst in CBIG’s steady growth in 2016 was its Strategic Analytics practice. He said that providing Analytics as a Service better amalgamates big picture goals with scalable, sequential initiatives clients can build on to achieve continuous ROIs throughout the process and beyond. Toward that end, Arendarczyk added that much of CBIG’s recent work in this domain involves customer migrations to more secure Cloud environments to enable multi-platform access to real-time, actionable information.

Based on positive forecasts from most industry analysts and CBIG’s own trending data, Arendarczyk said, “The evolving role of data-driven solutions to build and improve customer relations, and expand into new markets, will be fun to watch in 2017.”
