Our Method

Our playbook creates an intersection of data contextualization, robust technology, and interdisciplinary human interactions that all work together for the betterment of the communities we serve.

The Data

We bring together data from an array of diverse sources and facilitate seamless, secure and governed access. Data is our competitive differentiator, and within the Collaboratories ecosystem, we’re able to use it to cultivate true wisdom.

The People

To fully realize the potential of a robust data repository, it needs to be put in the hands of those who are trained to utilize it. For each Collaboratory, we mindfully gather a multifaceted group of experts within that field and nurture opportunities for collaboration to flourish.

The Platform

Our custom platform and ecosystem, our “Data Operating System,” was created alongside industry-leading technology partners and is continuing to disrupt traditional data and analytics models. It’s the hub that connects each Collaboratory’s ecosystem and allows for nimble, evolving insights and speedy decision support.

“How do we truly become a 21st century university? We do it by thinking about data in a boundaryless way. Contextualized data put in the hands of subject matter experts who are given the opportunity and tools to work together–this is the playbook that will generate wisdom and transform our institution.”
