Testimonials

We engaged McKnight Consulting Group to strategize and build customer master data management for our insurance company. They were extremely efficient and thorough in their approach. We went from a vague idea to all our customer records under management in production in 3 months. MCG built out the integration with third-party data sources and the data warehouse and the APIs with diverse homegrown and commercial products. They built the portal, the workflows and the matching strategy, always staying well connected to the user community and our emerging data governance, which they helped groom as well. They focused on production (and QA) from day one so that when the development was ready, it was ready to be migrated. I highly recommend MCG for any data management initiative.

Toby Cihla, Vice President of Data Architecture, Lio Insurance

MCG built our data management strategy and ran a master data management proof of concept. They did an excellent job. The application of their impressive expertise was outstanding. They had a solid methodological approach that was not constrained by orthodoxy, and they were able to reach into our organization and provide real leadership. Their business model of true data leaders for a finite time frame, considering strategy as step one in a journey to production business success and knowledge transfer, was perfect for us and for anyone. I highly recommend MCG when it comes to monetizing your corporate data. They are the experts at master data, analytical data, and data strategy.

"McKnight Consulting Group assisted us with recommending an analytic platform for a research database and developing detailed plans for integration into the environment (data sourcing, data quality, data modeling, data usage), including developing the business plan. The project is intended to enable leveraging of research data in an innovative way and is meant to and improve long-term knowledge generation about complex biological systems. We could not afford to take many false steps and needed advice and architecture from a trusted industry leader. During our association, we have learned many techniques as it relates to the management and the value realization of information. Without reservation, I endorse McKnight Consulting Group."

They kept informing us that they were helping to build out our information management strategy and starting us on the journey to information success as an end result. I sincerely value what McKnight Consulting brings to the table and wholeheartedly recommend a McKnight Consulting Group Action Plan to help take your information management capabilities and maturation to the next level."

"We engaged McKnight to fortify and mature our data governance program at TDAmeritrade. Data is our key asset, so we needed consulting that was reputable, experienced, and would be delivered with excellence. Poor data policies and poor data come with a great cost, and we could not afford the time or cost of working with anything less than the best. When it comes to data, McKnight is just that. McKnight led us through the development of data policies, metadata, a data quality program, data governance roles (and training), all the while making sure we were addressing challenges and problems with discrete business purposes. With McKnight's help, we built big data capabilities and master data management. McKnight has an unparalleled reputation for excellence as consultants, educators, and analysts. This is not without merit. McKnight is knowledgeable at the highest levels for data, but more importantly, they understand the dynamics of modern, large companies and what it takes to really move the needle. I strongly endorse McKnight Consulting Group."

- Derek Strauss, Chief Data Officer, TD Ameritrade
