General topics related to data, analysis, and analytics.

The analytics sector faces a significant disconnect between customers and analysts, resulting in confusion and inefficiencies. Customers seek clarity, while analysts provide depth. Advanata addresses this by employing a top-down approach that simplifies processes and enhances usability, enabling more effective analytics and maximizing value without unnecessary complexity or waste.

KPIs are often misused, diverting attention from complex problems to simpler, measurable ones, leading to detrimental outcomes. They should be indicators, not targets, with real goals aligned to customer business needs. Properly defined objectives are essential for effective analytics, making sure actions focus on meaningful results rather than misleading metrics.

Correlation does not imply causation; many analysts erroneously conflate the two. Collaboration between data analysts and customers, who possess domain expertise, is crucial for accurate conclusions. Employing an inductive approach allows for clearer identification of causation, improving efficiency and outcomes in analytics. This balance enhances the analysis process and results.
