Baltech provides full-service consulting in the focused areas of decision support, data warehousing, data mining, and advanced systems for management reporting and planning. Though we are a small organization, our impact in our practice areas is large, and we select projects that can have a significant impact on the bottom lines of our clients. Some of our practice specialties are:
Advanced Decision Support Systems : A cognitive approach to understanding the work habits of highly effective people shows that the techniques they employ include 1) monitoring their industry and business in real time, 2) considering multiple alternatives in parallel, 3) fitting individual decisions into an overall collection of decisions and plans, and 4) treating planning processes as "learning exercise." Traditional management reporting systems are not suited to these habits. Baltech understands the true requirements of decision support and can architect and implement solutions from initial concept to production deployment.
Data Warehouse Development : Advanced decision support can only be deployed effectively when the data architecture is formalized and subject to quality administration. Most organizations are awash in information, but it is too unstructured to be useful or actionable. As one of the leading independent data warehousing consultants and educators, we have the skills and experience to move a data warehouse from initial concept to production. By applying our own methodology, the Organizational Impact Statement, we can help clients understand the organizational implications that apply before, during and after a major technology initiative.
Technology Assessment : Baltech maintains close relationships with the vendor community. Baltech has been engaged by some of the leading vendors in the entry strategy, design and/or beta-testing of their products. We believe that only by keeping in close contact with vendors can we effectively advise our clients on the impact of emerging technologies on their business. Because we maintain a high level of awareness and expertise in this broad cross-section of products, we are frequently retained to establish the framework for software and hardware selection, as well as to prototype and assist in the selection process.

The assessments can be performed to help companies that are just entering the Corporate Information Factory arena, companies in the process of developing or implementing the Corporate Information Factory, and companies with operational Corporate Information Factories.
Within each of the assessments, areas of particular interest to the company are addressed. The assessments may address the data warehouse, the operational data store and/or the data marts. These areas include:
Data Warehousing Awareness
Business Sponsorship
Program and Project Preparation
Scope and Objectives
Methodology
Planning
Each assessment consists of on-site interviews by the Baltech consultant(s), a survey of people involved with the effort (if desired), and delivery of the assessment report. The report summarizes the information gathered and provides specific recommendations to maximize the potential for success. In addition to the assessment report, Baltech consultants strive to provide knowledge transfer. This is often accomplished through formal and informal presentations conducted while performing the assessment.
