The clean slate of a new year presents the perfect opportunity to reflect, take stock, and create some exciting new goals and visions. Our Private Sector team of data analytics experts took some time at the beginning of the year to do just that, and together, they shared some inspired resolutions for your data docket in 2025.
Get your systems talking to each other.
Brian Vinson, Client Success Leader
“Transportation companies are drowning in data but starving for insights. The key for 2025 isn’t collecting more data – it’s breaking down the walls between your systems. Whether it’s maintenance records, telematics, or dispatch systems, bringing these data sources together under one roof lets you spot patterns you’d never see otherwise.
Want to predict maintenance issues before they happen or optimize routes in real-time? Start by getting your systems talking to each other. The technology is there – you just need to connect the dots.”
Keep a constant focus on the human impact of your strategy.
Preston Howell, ProServ Market Lead and Director of Private Equity Solutions
“I’m passionate about data’s ability to transform how we work because it is the intersection between 1) the ‘what’ and ‘why’ of an organization’s strategy, 2) the ‘who’ that is participating, and 3) the ‘when’ and ‘where’ of the information in a system.
All too frequently the experts in our field focus on the technical pieces from our systems in part 3 but forget about the human impact found in parts 1 and 2. This year, commit to ensuring you keep a constant focus on the people and their strategy represented in your data.
Remember that the information you have within your systems provides a window into the nuances of your people, your organization, and your impact. This is powerful and beautiful, but it cannot be taken lightly.”
Establish clear AI data lineage and model monitoring frameworks.
Jeromy Peacock, Client Success Leader
“2025 will be pivotal for AI governance in the enterprise. Rather than treating AI models as black boxes, organizations must establish clear data lineage and model monitoring frameworks. Implement version control for training data, track model drift metrics, and document decision-making criteria for AI systems. Create a cross-functional AI governance committee that includes data scientists, legal experts, and business stakeholders to review high-impact AI deployments.
This foundation of transparency and accountability will be crucial as AI becomes more deeply embedded in critical business processes.”
Modernize healthcare ecosystems.
Houdini Abtahi, National Healthcare Lead, Private Sector
“Healthcare has historically been behind the times when it comes to IT. How often have you seen that the doctor’s office computer (that has your sensitive data on it) is older than your five-year-old laptop at home? Does it make you feel safe about your privacy?
In 2025, healthcare will no longer rely on reactive, one-size-fits-all approaches. The convergence of AI, data, and personalized care will shift the focus to precision, prevention, and patient-centric treatment. As we build a smarter, more connected healthcare ecosystem, patients will not just receive care—they will be empowered with data to actively participate in their own wellness journey, making healthcare more proactive, transparent, and ultimately, more human.
Let’s all work together to have a positive patient experience to benefit each other’s health.”
Create actual, tangible data.
Chris Waugh, Client Success Leader
“We’ve all heard the same resolutions every year: eat less, go to the gym, read a book, and reorganize the basement (OK, that last one might just be me). But your business can’t work with a resolution built on hope and a dream. You need actual, tangible data to know if your resolution will make a difference. What’s the adage? Track what you want to change. But what if you don’t know what to track to understand what you want to change? It’s a catch 22.
This year, commit to creating a new dashboard to track your business’ operational efficiency, monitor critical workflows, understand the time to complete various stages of projects, or generally measure success outside of the bottom right cell in your Excel workbook. This way, you don’t need to wait for a new year to make impactful changes. You’ll know what needs to be improved and have an easy visual to see if it’s making a difference.
Make 2025 the year you stop guessing and start making actionable, data-driven decisions.”
Harness the untapped potential of data.
Raman Perivela, Client Success Leader
“For organizations across industries, data holds the key to innovation, efficiency, and better decision-making. However, achieving these outcomes requires more than just collecting and storing data—it demands a deliberate and strategic approach to how your organization handles and leverages this critical asset.
In 2025, don’t let your data sit idle. Take actionable steps to streamline your processes, align your strategy, and put your data to work in ways that fuel innovation and growth. The journey to better data begins now, and the rewards are well worth the effort.”
