Yes, We Tailor Your BI & Data Managed Services

Unlike other companies, Onebridge does not confine clients to a single managed-services process. We've worked with clients of many different sizes, industries, and stages of data maturity. We know the best way to serve clients is to be flexible and tailor engagements to meet the needs of their individual teams and organizations. As always, we meet you where you stand to most effectively help you move forward.

Right-Source

Onebridge takes the time to get to know your needs and business objectives. Then we build a Managed Services team tailored to match your situation. Some of the factors we consider are:

  • Tech stack and infrastructure
  • Data strategy maturity
  • Required outcomes
  • Skill and capability gaps

Right-Size

Our pricing, scale, and timelines for managed services are custom fitted to match your budget and requirements. We ensure our services are tailored to your needs by addressing:

  • Ongoing vs. on-demand needs
  • Continuity requirements
  • Deliverables and milestones
  • Specialty vs. commodity services

Operationalize

Our own clients tell us that Onebridge's highly adaptive engagement models are among the top benefits that set us apart from our competitors. We personalize our services in areas such as:

  • Backlog management
  • Agile and sprint planning
  • Ticket management
  • Communication styles

MISSING EXPERTISE? NOT ANYMORE
A financial services client employs a great data analyst who can navigate Power BI and built the dashboard he needed himself. However, they lacked the integration, ETL/ELT, and warehouse expertise needed to pull their data together. Our team helped, and we continue to provide support and maintenance as new integration needs arise.

NEW DATA PROJECTS?
HANDLED WITH EASE
A large pharmaceutical has their own in-house team that can handle most of their needs. But when tasked with a new large-scale data migration project, they wanted help. We provided what they needed through a six-month Managed Services engagement and optional quarterly renewals to augment their team's capacity.

ADAPT TO YOUR PROCESSES?
NO PROBLEM
Onebridge uses Microsoft Teams internally and follows a two-week Agile sprint structure. A manufacturing client who hired us preferred to use Slack and their own internal ticketing system. They also wanted weekly sprints. We easily accommodated our client using their preferred tools. And we moved to a weekly sprint structure for a quick and seamless transition.

When Is it Time to Think About Managed Services?

Onebridge BI and Data Managed Services came about due to the increasing need for businesses to find ways to deal with the growing complexity, fluctuations, and talent management challenges of data. If you're leading or managing a data strategy or initiative in your organization and have any of the following challenge, it's probably the right time to look into managed services options.

The Advantages of Managed Services

Get A Full Team for the Price of One

According to Gartner, 85% of large data projects fail. This is significantly due to the great variety of skills and experience needed, the complexity, and the large fluctuations in workload.

Onebridge's Managed Services allow you to supplement the investment of a single team member into a flexible team. Instead of one Java developer, you can have a team with diverse expertise in Java, SQL, AWS, GCP, ELT/EL, data modeling, and more. All ready to help. Better yet, our Managed Services teams can go from 2-3 augmented services, to a full outsourced team, and back again. That kind of flexibility reduces your risk while providing the adaptability and varied skillsets your organization needs at any given point.

Gain Critical Project Continuity

If you've already used Onebridge for an initial project or data strategy, moving forward with Managed Services ensures consistency, eliminates disruption, and preserves the “brain trust.”

We understand that budgets can be tight. Once a project reaches a clearly understood execution phase, it can be tempting to move the rest of the work to an offshore team. Our experience is that offshore contracting seldom works out for any party or stakeholder involved. In fact, a good percentage of our work comes from clients who need us to clean up their outsourced projects.

Our Managed Services engagements are designed to be the best of both options, offering you a familiar and capable team with a reduced cost, as compared to in-house staffing. The success of data and digital initiatives always boils down to a combination of people, process, and technology.

Continuity, communication, and context are critical to the success of any initiative, but most of all when it comes to the complexities of data and information technology. Our Managed Services teams keep your business goals in mind  while helping you stay on task.
