Mark Rittman -

OK, I promise this is the last advert for a while, however I wanted to take a few moments just to talk about the Oracle BI&DW consulting services that Rittman Mead offers. Normal service will be resumed shortly...

Apart from Oracle BI & data warehousing technical training, the other main element of our business is consulting services. Both myself and Jon Mead have worked for many years in the Oracle consulting market, and together with our associates (Peter Scott, Borkur Steingrimmson and others) we can help with the implementation of your project across the complete range of Oracle BI and data warehousing technologies.

Over the past year, we have worked with clients such as:

  • A major airline who wanted to healthcheck and audit their data warehouse
  • An investment bank in London looking to implement an Oracle Database 10g data warehouse
  • Another investment bank in London looking to assess the suitability of Oracle OLAP and Essbase for their risk-management project
  • A credit-reference company also in London who used us to help pull together their business intelligence project requirements
  • A police force building an BI system using Oracle Discoverer and Oracle Database 10g
  • A government agency in the Gulf States putting together a statistical data warehouse
  • A utility in North America building a data warehouse off of Oracle e-Business Suite
  • A health provider in Europe starting to implement Oracle Warehouse Builder
  • A university looking to roll-out an organization-wide business intelligence platform

...and many others.

We've either provided focused, top-level architectural and design advice, mentoring, or even delivered the project from start to finish. Most customers come to us direct, but we also work through partners in the UK who have a need for our particular in-depth product knowledge. Projects have ranged from a couple of days through to our longest ones, where we're still on-site after several months, providing a helping hand through all stages of the project. We also work with clients who have their system in place and are looking for a technology refresh, or to solve some niggling technical problems or deal with a technical outage.

If budgets are constrained, or you're looking to get a solution delivered quickly, using consulting services such as ours can be a particularly effective way to meet your goals. We're self-sufficient, able to deliver immediately, don't need any "bedding-in" time and work to strict goals and objectives defined by yourselves. We know the products inside out, and have delivered this sort of work many times before, so you benefit from our accumulated experience, our ability to get working straight away, our focus on your goals, plus we can train up your staff on the way so you'll be better able to support yourselves in the future.

If you're interested in speaking to us about assisting with your project, or if you've got a pressing technical need that you want to discuss with someone, give Mark Rittman a call on +44 7866 568246 or write to us at info@rittmanmead.com, and we'll get back to you straight away.
