Once data is collected, the next step is to begin to understand the story your data is telling you. A robust data management system allows you to unlock the value of your data. You are able to reliably access and govern your data, but also to securely store and prepare data for analysis. Our partners look to us to understand their data needs, design and architect scalable information management systems, and provide hosting support to those who leverage a managed cloud-based installation. Our solutions range from small, single projects to multi-country or enterprise systems.
Database design and management
Now that you have identified the data you will collect, you must determine how the data will be stored and how the individual elements will interrelate. To make these decisions, you have to clearly define the purpose of your database, or “why am I storing and managing this data?” Determine the outcome you desire from your data and then begin to design your database. To leverage the power of a well designed data structure, members of the BAO Systems implementation team will partner with you to classify your data and identify hierarchies and interrelationships. Once the data relationships and dependencies have been established, the data will be arranged into a logical structure that can then be leveraged to gain insights and interoperate with other systems.
