Investment – a perspective from Deloitte

Andrew Berry, Director specialising in data and AI at Deloitte, gives us an overview of his data journey and experiences.

I spoke to Andrew Berry, a Director specialising in data and AI at Deloitte. I asked Andrew if he could give us an overview of his data journey and experiences. I also asked him how people justify the investment in data, especially those first steps.

Andrew shared some amazing insights, the points that resonated most with me were:

  • A strong link between data and business strategy helps communicate the value of the data investments and makes the conversation more tangible for investors.
  • 3 hooks for investments are Risk removal, Revenue increases and Cost reduction.
  • Reviewing your data ambition through different lenses including People, Process and Technology (a topic we will return to in the Ability To Execute section).
  • The 3 step process to get started: Explore, Experience, Execute.
