Technology, Data and Analytics

Innovate with confidence by taking control of your data and technology

As the business landscape becomes increasingly digital, organisations need the confidence in their technology infrastructure to mitigate risk and accelerate innovation and growth. And by linking performance and decision making with data and cutting-edge technology organisations can create actionable insights that help create lasting value and change.

We help organisations understand the opportunities from emerging technology and use data and the insights it provides to drive growth, operate more efficiently and manage risk. Our human-led, technology-powered approach is underpinned by PwC’s global business understanding, industry specialists and technology expertise.

Our services

Technology Enabled Transformation

Effective data management is at the heart of any successful technology-enabled transformation. We help our clients to identify trends, search for patterns and uncover previously unknown correlations in their data, thereby reducing their operational costs and empowering their people.

Machine learning and advanced analytics

Advanced analytics and machine learning tools enable practical insights and are used to detect fraud, build personalised shopping experiences and even improve athlete performance. Business often struggle to join the dots between fast-advancing technologies and demonstrating the opportunity in practice, and are surprised at how quickly innovative ideas can be tried out.

Internal Audit Analytics

Internal Audit functions are under increased pressure to demonstrate the value that they deliver to their organisations. We help our clients throughout their Internal Audit Data Analytics journey, from understanding where they are now, development of their vision, strategy and operating model right through to the execution of data enabled audits and project.

Data Intelligence Platform

Our Data Intelligence Platform automatically reads, ingests, interprets and reports across a wide range of structured and unstructured data types. Because it harnesses the scale of Cloud, the power of artificial intelligence and advanced visual analytics tools, it enables financial firms to make fact-based decisions relying on near real-time information.

Transaction reporting

PwC combines an expertise in data analytics and regulation to provide a set of industry-leading solutions in compliance, supporting the full range of transaction reporting regulations (MIFID, EMIR, CFTC, HKMA, MAS, ASIC, JFSA and other G20 derivative regulations).

Cloud architecture

Cloud transformation is about your business, not just the technology. We tailor your cloud transformation to help achieve your business goals - this is not moving you applications from on-prem to the cloud but a real understanding of how you can rearchitect your data and business to drive real transformation using the cloud.

As a business leader, you want reliable data and analytics (D&A) to inform your important decisions. Our approach is designed to enable innovation that creates new business models and amazing customer experiences, our solution drives revenue and streamlines operations — all while managing risk and letting your business stay resilient.

Our combined expertise in business, technology, risk and controls helps power insights into how the cloud can transform your business. We build analytics capabilities on top of data platforms that tie into your business strategy and provide insight into key performance indicators for your organisation.

Imagine...

... having advanced business analytics that give you the ability to see and predict everything, everywhere. Every interaction with customers. Every moving part in your supply chain. Every financial transaction, anywhere in the world.

... having data architecture that lets you process all that information instantly, to improve customer insights, build products faster or spot fraud.

... using predictive analytics that give you the ability to react to events before they happen. To stop customer churn. Prevent accidents. Predict the impact of medical treatments. And imagine if analytics could help you to drive business innovation and open up totally new revenue streams to create products and offers you haven’t even dreamed of yet.

The good news is, data is an asset you already own. We’ll help you to analyse your current state, develop a strong data foundation, and then monetise that data and harness the power of the information you hold to optimise business performance and commercialise data opportunities.

How to use data and analytics? Your journey begins here…

Modernise your data and analytics platform. Re-platform legacy data warehouse and business intelligence architectures in cloud, enabling modernised data management, business intelligence, and advanced analytics capabilities. We’ll help to build out data and analytics platforms to support the adoption of analytical workloads in the cloud (hybrid/multi-cloud environments).

Effective analytics starts with trusted data. You’re using your data to drive business innovation, so there’s no room for error. Data quality begins with solid data governance. It has to be well-organised, relevant, accurate, and understandable. We’ll help create your data framework, build the strategy, optimise your infrastructure, processes and systems and create the culture to become a data-driven organisation.

Turn your data into a superpower. So you have the right data architecture and can rely on your data quality. Now what do you do with it? That’s where predictive analytics comes in. It uses your data to give you the potential to act—not react. Use risk analytics to spot fraud before it happens. Gather customer insights to know how many people you need on the shop floor, weeks in advance. Predict and optimise deals through mergers and acquisition data. Filter the signal from the noise and look ahead with confidence. We’ll show you how it all works, every step of the way.

Do what you do today. Even better. Every function, in every business, in every industry, can work more effectively. For instance, analytics can help you understand and optimise the end-to-end value chain in the Retail Industry and manage operational costs. Rationalise technology and gain customer insights. Boost growth through strategic pricing models and data-driven marketing. The result? Maximised profits.

Discover the unknown business opportunities. If data is the new oil, business innovation comes when you know where and how to strike it. Together, we’ll explore emerging technologies, test innovative ideas, and uncover ways to rethink the way you do business.
