CUSTOMER INFORMATION

INTRODUCTION

When you invest in data technology and professionals, you expect to see improved decision intelligence.

But, without the organizational framework to support your investment, you will likely be disappointed.

Cybele knows what it takes to get the most from your data, and we can help you achieve it. Specifically, we help you:

Improve understanding of your data, where it is stored and how to get the most from it.

Reduce the time between data gathering and operational insights.

Manage your data talent for sustainable and effective data operations.

Increase data literacy and support for data operations across your organization.

We are teachers, translators, mentors and connectors. Our goal is to increase data awareness and culture across your organization, including data science or analytics staff, leadership, IT folks and those who are the 'customers' of advanced analytics. We believe that buying analytics tools, or hiring analytics staff, without having a data culture in place across the organization, is only a temporary fix to data problems.

Our goal is to support you in addressing your data problems, by enabling the success of your data operations technology and staff.

Our small size ensures that we are agile and responsive to our client’s changing requirements. In addition, we can provide value to our federal government clients through short (one week to one month) engagements priced below the micro-purchase threshold. Cybele does accept government credit cards.

and maintain successful data operations.

SERVICES

Our services include:

Leadership: Leader Development | Strategy and Plans | Executive Training

Effective data operations require knowledgeable leadership, both on the data team and across the organization. Leaders must be data literate and data champions, have a strategy for using the data and data resources, and an awareness of what data the organization is collecting and storing.

Workforce: Training and curriculum | Talent management | Team development

Data teams must be able to communicate with leadership, IT and non-data staff. Hiring, retaining and developing data practitioners—particularly ones with good soft skills—requires knowledge of the data talent landscape, skills and career paths. Cybele can develop and conduct training ranging from practitioner to senior executive level, tailored to your agency’s specific needs. We can also assist in screening and interviewing data practitioners, developing job descriptions and internship plans, and developing data team structures that suit your agency’s requirements.

Technology: Training and manuals | Tool Evaluation | Information papers

Great data tools and services can fail for your organization simply because of a lack of training, help documentation, integration or change management. They also can fail due to lack of evaluation and research prior to acquisition. Leaders must lay the groundwork for these to succeed. Cybele can produce training manuals from the user perspective, conduct tool usability evaluations, research and prepare information papers keeping stakeholders informed on topics such as data science, artificial intelligence and quantum computing.

Process: Workflow development | User stories | Doctrine support

It is well-known that advanced analytics can provide value. But the details of how your organization will use it may not be so obvious. User stories—requirements from the user activity perspective—can provide detailed scenarios to inform implementation and workflow. Cybele can facilitate user story development with those who expect to benefit from data operations. We can also provide subject matter expertise to creating or modifying doctrine relating to data operations.

Community: Communication plans | Mentorship | Connections

Open exchanges of information, code and resources have fueled the rapid growth in machine learning and data operations. Connection to the greater data community is key to your organization’s data operations growth but getting started can be challenging without connections. Cybele has deep connections throughout the data community from our years of experience. We also have connections with basic and applied researchers, Agile developers, cloud service providers and technology implementers. Our community includes military, civilian, industry and academia, mostly from firms that do not traditionally do business with the public sector.

and maintain successful data operations.

BENEFITS

Clients who could benefit from our services include:

Agency, directorate, division or team leader who:

Is responsible for a team of data scientists or IT personnel and needs an improved understanding of DevSecOps and data science.

Sees the need to bring about a change in the way his/her agency thinks about data.

Requires assistance keeping up to date with advances in data science and DevSecOps.

Intelligence analyst who is overwhelmed with the variety, velocity and volume of data, and who wants to know how to work with the agency’s data science team.

Data scientist who finds it difficult to connect with intelligence analysts who require their services.

IT professional responsible for setting up a DevSecOps operation, who needs guidance on how to implement one.

Technology stakeholder who just acquired a new software tool and needs help improving adoption and use of the tool.

We look forward to supporting you in building and growing a sustainable and effective data operation!
