Make Meaning Out of Mess
Accountability and Assurance
Sometimes key insights are hidden in paper logs and notes. From staff's prior management audit of a county sheriff’s custody operations, problems with scheduling were uncovered in a binder and analyzed digitally when paired with other records.
Insight From Disparate Sources
Comprehensive Understanding
Staff's prior analysis of a county's building portfolio was the organization's first comprehensive understanding of its multi-billion dollar real estate assets. It blended several data sources including financial (SAP), human resources (People Soft), multiple infrastructure maintenance systems, geospatial data, and more.
Use Neglected Data to Improve Accountability and Safety
Safety, Efficiency, and Sustainability
Staff prior work included an analysis of San Francisco's vehicle fleet telematics system. Showed usage trends that were previously unreported and made recommendations to improve safety, decrease costs, and lower vehicle emissions.
