FTI has developed a simple-to-understand data maturity model coupled with a progressive methodology to help illuminate and optimize your organization's data management and Business Intelligence capability. We know what questions to ask through comprehensive interviews and detailed surveys and questionnaires. We apply the results of these fact-finding endeavors to our DIVO Maturity ModelTM (Data, Integration, Visualization, and Optimization), so you can clearly see where your organization has opportunities for growth potential. Depending on your specific goals and resource capabilities, FTI can then match you with the solutions and services that meet your needs using our easy-to-understand CIMS MethodologyTM (Create, Implement, Maintain, and Support)

DIVO Maturity ModelTM
The DIVO Maturity ModelTM consists of four levels of data management/Business Intelligence capability:
 
I.
Stage I - Random (Data)
 
Drives the Individual
   
Data is random and manually collected by individuals to make decisions about one's own job function
 
II.
Stage II - Structured (Integration)
 
Drives the Business Unit
   

Data is somewhat assimilated into various isolated business strategies (CRM, Supply Chain, etc.), but is primarily manually collected and reports are usually one-offs to drive business unit decisions only.

 
III.
Stage III - Controlled (Visualization)
 
Drives the Enterprise
   
Data is 'virtualized' into web portals, systematically automated into standard 'formats' (reporting and analytics) designed to be shared by all business units, with uniformly trained casual and power users, driving enterprise strategic decisions
 
IV.
Stage IV - Dynamic (Optimization)
    Drives the Market
 
Data is 'optimized' into 'virtualized' platforms and architectures that can be readily shared and utilized by customers and suppliers alike, allowing organizations to drive and lead markets.
 
Organizations may have varying degrees of information and insight in any one or all of the stages of data maturity, however, the effectiveness of information and insight is directly related to the degree of Data, Integration, Visualization, and Optimization (DIVO) that your organization possesses.
