Ben Nicaudie 5th June 2014 Business Insight and Big Maturity in 2014 Putting it into practice in the Energy & Utilities sector
blues & skills issues A disproportionate portion of the time spent on analytics projects is about data preparation: acquiring/preparing/formatting/normalising the data In addition to raw data, augmented data/analytical assets can significantly speed up the analytics process and partially bridge the talent gap
Business scenarios we see Subject matter experts want access to their organization s data to explore the content, select, control, annotate and access information using their terminology with an underpinning of protection and governance. Scientists seeking data for new analytics models. Marketeer seeking data for new campaigns. Fraud investigator seeking data to understand the details of suspicious activity. Day-to-day activity. Requiring ad hoc access to a wide variety of data sources. Supporting analysis and decision making. Using the subject matter experts terminology. Providing the flexibility of spreadsheets that can scale to large volumes, a wide variety of information types whilst protecting sensitive information and optimizing data storage and provisioning.
The interesting dilemma A man goes into a jewellers and buys an expensive watch Is it fraud in which case the bank must stop it Is it money-laundering in which case the bank must report it Threat Obligation Does he have an expensive trophy wife in which case perhaps he would be interested in a loan? Has he just won the lottery should the bank improve the services offered? Opportunity The same event is of interest by different departments. There is major overlap in the data required to answer the question. It may not be possible to determine the answer with just the information in the channel - Previous or subsequent activity is required It is all a matter of coordination and timing
What is a data lake? A Lake provides data to an organization for a variety of analytics processing including: Discovery and exploration of data Simple ad hoc analytics Complex analysis for business decisions Reporting Real-time analytics It is possible to deploy analytics into the data lake to generate additional insight from the data loaded into the data lake. A data lake manages shared repositories of information for analytical purposes. Each Lake Repository is optimized for a particular type of processing. Real-time analytics, deep analytics (such as data mining), exploratory analytics, OLAP, reporting, Lake Services Lake Repositories Management and Governance Fabric Lake values may be replicated in multiple repositories in the data lake. However the data lake ensures the copying and updating of this data is managed and governed using well-defined information supply chains. in the data lake can be accessed through different types of interfaces and provisioning mechanisms provided the Lake Services.

Applying data and analytics in day to day operations STRATEGIC ASSET MANAGEMENT
Asset Management impacts all aspects of our clients, and increasingly uses data from many sources.. this is driving a need for increased use of a wide range of analytics in the asset management space
New capabilities required Asset Managers are continually looking to improve the way they maintain and develop their assets Level of Excellence V. Total Productive Maintenance Better asset operation, maintenance and replacement decisions IV. Reliability-based Maintenance Improved ability to review and report asset and network performance END-TO-END PROCESS VISIBILITY CONSISTENT, QUALITY DATA Ability to optimise an integrated delivery plan in real time III. Predictive Maintenance II. Preventive Maintenance Better and easier asset and operations data capture and sharing AND INTEGRATED PLANS Improved planning and construction portfolio and Alliance management I. Run to Failure Maintenance the pursuit of excellence means the extent of our ability to collect, share and analyse information is key to improvement
So, how can we be smart and easy to use..? To investigate, we went back to first principles Analytics Sophistication performance management strategic planning Use structured and unstructured data Numeric Text Image Audio Captured Detected Inferred Made consumable and accessible to everyone, optimized for their specific purpose, at the point of impact. What happened? Reporting How many, how often, where? Questioning What exactly is the problem? Visualisation What actions are needed? Decision support What could happen? Simulation What if these trends continue? Forecasting What will happen next if? Predictive Modelling How can we achieve the best outcome? Optimization How can we achieve the best outcome and address variability? Stochastic Optimization Video Management Descriptive Analytics Predictive Analytics Prescriptive Analytics
