Caserta works with clients from a few key industries, but also have clients that are outliers.

“Caserta’s considerable experience manifests itself in quick and effective approaches. Their analyses are focused and yield helpful recommendations in a very short amount of time. Second, the team’s technical and engineering skills are wide-ranging,” said Steve Stryker, CTO of Värde Partners.

As industry thought leaders comprised of data engineers, data architects, data scientists and other relentlessly talented data professionals, Caserta understands how challenging it is to develop a clear data strategy or project scope, source the hard-to-find talent, and execute a vision. Caserta’s lean teams are force multipliers that work with the clients to:

• Clarify a client’s vision and mission and translate into a strategic roadmap
• Architect and design innovative solutions based on production-hardened frameworks and methodologies
• Implement and execute the strategic roadmap and ensure change management

Caserta works with its clients to determine what their needs are, where their challenges lie, and how they can help. At the end of it all, Caserta provides its clients with a step-by-step roadmap that gives the clients all the information they need to accomplish the data and analytics goals.

Step One: Discovery | Identify

Each client engagement begins with a discovery call. During this call, Caserta gets up to speed on the difficulties the client’s been having, where they want to go, and how Caserta can help them extract value from the data. The discovery call helps Caserta identify the resources it will use to solve client’s problems and sets the stage for the next steps in the Caserta Process.

Step Two: Assessment | Strategize

Caserta comes in and performs a strategic assessment in which it takes a comprehensive look at what it is the clients are trying to accomplish, what systems the clients have in play today, and what business requirements they are dealing with.

Through detailed interviews with stakeholders, both on the business and technical sides, and deep dives into a client’s data ecosystem/assets and current technical structure, Caserta gets an in-depth understanding of goals and vision, which helps Caserta tailor their solutions to a client’s needs.

Step Three: Deliverables | Transform

The Caserta team then takes everything they have learned about a client’s business, their requirements, and their challenges and presents them with a Roadmap to Transform.

In it, the clients receive Caserta’s findings on a recommended approach, including the technical reference architecture and technical requirements applicable to their case, as well as the tools, suggested platforms, and estimated time and cost to carry out a solution. A client’s Roadmap to Transform includes a detailed step-by-step guide to get the data and analytics programs where clients want them to be as fast as possible.

Many organizations struggle to extract value from data. Despite the mandates from the business to be more data-driven, many of these initiatives stall indefinitely or ultimately fail because of unclear or incomplete data strategy, a lack of the right in-house data talent, and ineffective change management. Caserta is working to address this with great with its great work.
