Most AI projects fail before a single model is trained. The problem is the foundation — fragmented data, no governance, no clear architecture. We fix that first.
Every data and AI investment your business makes sits on a foundation. If that foundation is weak — siloed systems, undefined ownership, inconsistent data — every project that follows will underdeliver.
DataTheta’s Foundation & Advisory practice does the strategic and architectural work before any build begins. We assess where you are, define where you need to be, and produce a concrete roadmap that your team can execute — with or without us.
A 12–24 month plan aligned to your business priorities — not a generic best-practice document.
Target-state cloud data platform architecture: lakehouse, medallion, mesh — chosen for your scale and team.
Structured evaluation across data quality, tooling, talent, and governance — with a specific action plan.
Ownership models, data contracts, quality standards, lineage, and compliance mapping.
Strategy, architecture, and governance before you build - so every AI investment lands on a foundation that can support it.
8-week assessment identified 6 data quality gaps blocking ML deployment. Roadmap closed them in parallel with the build — cutting project timeline by 4 months.
Built a governance framework covering lineage, classification, and audit trails for FERC and SEC reporting — reducing compliance prep from weeks to hours.
Post-acquisition, two companies, three data warehouses, zero common definitions. We designed the unified target state and sequenced the migration.
Objective vendor evaluation across Snowflake, Databricks, and BigQuery — with a 12-month migration plan from legacy on-prem warehouse.
Designed real-time streaming architecture for 400+ plant sensors — the foundation for a predictive maintenance model that reduced unplanned downtime by 23%.
We map your existing data landscape — sources, quality, pipelines, ownership — and identify the gaps that are limiting business value.
We design the platform and governance model your business needs, with technology choices grounded in your team's capability and your budget.
A sequenced delivery plan — quick wins in weeks 1–8, platform foundations in months 3–6, advanced capability in months 7–18.
Ongoing principal-level guidance as your team executes — ensuring decisions stay aligned to the strategy even as priorities shift.
