Advanced Analytics

Today’s global economy has increased the need for fact-based decision-making using scientific analytics, not just business experience and intuition. Both strategic and tactical decisions must be based on a balanced mixture of quantitative and qualitative data derived from operational experience, industry knowledge and a detailed understanding of human factors. In response to this trend, the Breckenridge Institute maintains expertise in a number of statistical packages like SAS, SPSS, and LISREL, which allows us to conduct advanced analytics using methodologies such as:

  • Structural Equation Modeling (SEM)
  • Reliability Analysis
  • Multiple Regression Analysis
  • Logical Regression
  • Categorical Analysis
  • Factor Analysis
  • Cluster Analysis
  • Multi-Dimensional Scaling
  • MANOVA (multivariate analysis of variance)
  • Covariance Structural Models (LISREL)
  • Data Mining

An organization’s culture is like its personality, with unique patterns of financial and non-financial performance that can be characterized using a variety of assessment tools developed by the Breckenridge Institute. Advanced statistical techniques (like factor analysis and regression analysis) are used to identify effective and ineffective patterns of organizational performance, which subsequently form a quantitative basis for organizational improvement and change initiatives. Advanced analytic techniques are also used to explore the cause-and-effect relationship between: a) corporate culture, b) financial and non-financial performance indicators, and c) the personality styles and ways of working of leaders, managers, and staff members. In addition, the Institute also has the expertise to design and implement the database architectures needed to store and manipulate large data samples using Access, SQL Server, and Oracle platforms.
