“In today’s technology-dependent economy, organized management, analysis and leverage of real-time data
have become a necessity. Headquartered in Chicago, IL, USA, CBIG Consulting works with enterprises to build a roadmap to success with Business Intelligenceand Big Data Analytics.”

Chris Lynch, a popular author had once said, “Big Data is the foundation of all the megatrends that are happening today, from social to mobile to cloud to gaming”. And since inception in 2002, CBIG Consulting and its operational success bears testimony to the potential and power of Big Data Analytics. The company that focuses exclusively on developing forward-thinking Business Intelligence (BI) services, channels the growing power of Big Data with its unique CBIG Framework methodology.

CBIG began operations in 2002 as a vendor neutral consulting group, focusing exclusively on services that promoted its expertise in business intelligence and data warehousing services. As technologies evolved, CBIG’s team developed innovative BI advancements to leverage the power of Big Data analytics and Cloud technology. Fast forward to today, CBIG’s professionals continue to support clients and one another in leveraging their collective knowledge gained in over 500 projects that have helped enterprises increase their value and competitive edge. Ideally positioned to help enterprises discover, develop, and then realize their business potential, the strategic management-oriented firm does much of its work by collaborating with marketing, sales, financial and operations executives to better understand their organization’s challenges as well as big-picture goals. Using field-tested methodologies, the company adopts best-practice approaches to develop clear needs assessments, roadmaps, delivery systems, Proof-of-Value exercises to test recommendations, and ongoing support as required.

Additionally, the firm attributes much of its growth in the industry to paying attention—not only to advancements in data science, new software solutions, or evolving technology—but to the “what if” creative requests that its clients make that can break through perceived limits of technology in solving their daily challenges.
