How To Partner With Us
Design and implement advanced information and data solutions that are tailored to your organization.
Design and implement advanced information and data solutions that are tailored to your business. Bridge organizational silos, connect diverse domains of knowledge and information, and accelerate holistic decision making.
Strategy and Roadmapping
Our data strategy and implementation work spans the public and private sectors. We begin with design workshops coupled with bottom-up data, content, and information analysis to thoroughly understand your organization’s key business priorities, strategic goals, data inventory, and current technical capabilities. This will enable us to define your data management and governance vision, develop an effective work plan, and create a tailored roadmap designed to align with your internal goals and capabilities for data efforts.
Modeling and Architectural Design
Effective enterprise data models are essential to connecting and standardizing information so that it can be leveraged to meet business goals. Our experts will help you design an enterprise ontology, or semantic data model, to model your domain and the unique components of your organization. The ontology can be used to transform existing data, capture and standardize implicit data, and generate missing data via inference and artificial intelligence. Our solutions architects can design comprehensive and efficient knowledge graph solutions ensuring data findability and customized models that answer the business questions your organization needs to answer.
Software Selection
While our data solutions recognize that software is only one piece of the puzzle, we know that navigating the myriad of technology options available for enterprise initiatives can be difficult. Our consultants bring their experience working with a wide range of tools to conduct a vendor fit analysis of potential software options tailored to data management, metadata/taxonomy management, data cataloging and governance as well as knowledge graph database needs. This yields a short-list of candidate software vendors that will offer solutions for achieving your goals in the most efficient and effective way. Based on the preferred vendor, we then develop a high-level data and information architecture and model to visualize how the tools best fit and integrate within your technology framework for a successful implementation.
Implementation and Integration
EK’s in-house, full stack developers (our taxonomists, ontologists, architects, engineers, data scientists, and developers) implement knowledge graphs, machine learning, natural language processing (NLP) and semantic technologies for a range of public and commercial institutions. We help you effectively and incrementally develop and deliver the strategy, manage and assist in the execution of the implementation plan, and show results quickly and consistently.
Governance and Scalability
Many data initiatives fail because there’s no plan for scale and maintenance. EK’s governance and change management experts will work with your organization to ensure that our solutions will evolve and scale to fit your needs, developing robust processes to ensure data integrity, security, and evolution over time.

Design Workshop Facilitation
Many organizations fail to find an effective starting point for their data strategy and implementation efforts, delaying critical efforts because they don’t know how or where to start. Get started by developing a shared vision to drive the practical development of starter data models. Take the first step by getting a repeatable process of tangible activities that treat stakeholders and end-users as partners and co-creators. This workshop is designed to create alignment and a working plan to maximize your investments in advanced data management and governance models. Specifically, the workshop will enable you to:
- Gain a baseline understanding of flexible and advanced semantic data models;
- Develop a shared understanding of design goals and identify related business value;
- Convey challenges associated with actual business users that span enterprise data management systems and represent different needs;
- Develop a prioritized list of metadata and semantic models for use in the classification model; and
- Develop clear, practical, and tailored next steps for enriching and expanding the starter ontology and graph model for the rest of your organization.

Knowledge Graph Accelerator
Decision-makers and business stakeholders need to see and experience knowledge graphs to understand the monumental challenges they can solve for your organization. The Knowledge Graph Accelerator offering with Enterprise Knowledge (EK) will help you address this need, establishing a practical, best practices-based roadmap and prototype to quickly realize the potential of knowledge graphs.
In eight weeks or less, the Knowledge Graph Accelerator will deliver understanding, alignment, and a first implementable version (FIV) knowledge graph prototype, ensuring your organization quickly gains everything they need to move forward. Over this time period, you’ll engage with leading experts in graph data modeling, graph technologies, and Enterprise AI to see the following outcomes:
- Better understand the foundations of knowledge graphs, including graph data model, data mapping, and data management;
- Design a first implementable version (FIV) knowledge graph that can be scaled and enhanced;
- Implement a pilot version of your graph solution leveraging a knowledge graph-based data management solution; and
- Identify a strategy for your organization to make Enterprise AI a reality.

Data Strategy and Roadmapping
Many organizations are interested in implementing artificial intelligence (AI) applications, but find it challenging to convey how AI can support their overall strategic objectives or how they can begin these complex efforts. At EK, we work with a vast array of organizations to help define a clear and concise vision for leveraging data assets to achieve strategic business objectives.
We start by working with your organization’s business leaders, end users, and technical experts to align their priorities and needs and analyze your current data, content, technology, and infrastructure readiness. Working with you, we’ll design a tailored data strategy and roadmap that defines an iterative plan, considering all dimensions of implementation (i.e. dependencies and interactions) and future scalability of advanced AI capabilities. In addition, we’ll help you to develop agile metrics and ROI to track progress and show business value throughout implementation, enhancement, scaling, and automation.
Our data strategy will focus on the most pressing needs at your organization, such as:
Privacy and Security
Findability and Access
