NEW PODCAST Episode
Running a data-driven company, especially one related to public transport can be an uphill task, especially with old-school engineering-focused approaches.
I had Rob Roemers from STIB-MIVB, a public transport operator in Belgium, on the 'Data Strategy Guru's' this week.
Transitioning to a data and analytics approach has been one of STIB’s key operational moves. So I asked Rob how established organizations can pivot to become data-led.
His response: Leverage existing resources for outsized outputs. On top of that, invest in a cultural shift towards data.
👉 Got an existing engineering focus?
👉 Have teams that can analyze and deliver insights?
👉 Can you convince your colleagues to shift their mindset and see the value of data?
Companies in the public sector have an advantage of having stable resources and data. If you can pivot and channel efforts into a data-led framework, you can convince all stakeholders to get on board.
STIB did a data management move just like this. Initially, they were SAP-based data warehousing centric. But by advocating for a more holistic model, including data science, they were eventually able to foster a federated analytics structure across business units.
