Consulting & Data Analysis

We are looking forward to leverage the potential of your data in order to enable you to make better decisions, optimize performance, and gain competitive advantages.

While working with clients on projects in risk management we ..

... develop processes for data analysis and decision making, ...

... advise them on appropriate information bases for risk decisions ...

... and conduct data analyses in order to gain new insights based on our clients data e.g. combined with external information. Hereby we often work together with scientific institutions e.g. as by the following projects:

Comparison of ratings, information from sales, payment history and (social) media data regarding their ability to anticipate insolvencies of debtors in cooperation with a leading German mechanical engineering company

Up to 72,9% of bad debt can be reduced if the information base for B2B-credit risk assessment - usually including ratings, payment history, sales information and balance sheet analysis -  is enhanced by data from (social) media platforms

It is advisable to start the (social) media monitoring with selected business partners by taking into account e.g. business volume, dependance or risk and scale up the monitoring after establishing processes with high maturity level

(see: Mengelkamp, A.: Verringerung von Forderungsausfällen durch Integration von Daten aus (sozialen) Medien in Bonitätsprüfungsprozesse, in: van Koeverden, A.; Schneider-Maessen, J.; Da Silva, F.; Schumann, M. (Hrsg.): Bundeskongress 2024 – Strategisches Credit Management zur partnerschaftlichen Vertriebskooperation, Kleve, 2024, S. 43 – 56.)

Analysis of social media data regarding insolvencies of suppliers in cooperation with a leading German automobile manufacturer

Suppliers can be classified as prospectively solvent or insolvent with up to 84% accuracy when solely data from social media platforms is considered

While implementing social media analysis for supplier risk management, decisions especially regarding self or external development and hosting of the software, integration of social media data in existing risk management systems as well as reporting and alerting processes were made

(see: Vogel, C. F., Mengelkamp, A.: Bonitätsprüfung auf Basis von Daten aus sozialen Medien zur Bewertung der Lieferantenstabilität in der Automobilbranche, in: van Koeverden, A.; Schneider-Maessen, J.; Da Silva, F.; Schumann, M. (Hrsg.): Bundeskongress 2023 – In der Zeitenwende Klima, Konflikte und Kosten mit aktivem Credit Management meistern, Kleve, 2023, S. 55-75.)

(Social) Media Monitoring of Business Partners

Our cloud-based platform for (social) media analysis enables companies to monitor their suppliers and customers – integrate the data into third-party systems and rely on your existing systems landscape.

Our software is most often used in the domains of:

Supplier Risk Management

Identify vulnerabilities in the supply chain and initiate stabilization measures

Credit Risk Management

Evaluate the (financial) health and creditworthiness of customers in order to ensure full, punctual and reliable payment

Use the most up-to-date and powerful AI technologies to analyse (social) media communication regarding your business partners in real time

Profit from our established reporting and alerting infrastructure and receive latest news regarding your business partners customized to your requirements

Overcome deficits of traditional information e.g. analysis of balance sheets and payment behavior commonly used for monitoring the stability of business partners

- Balance sheets are published with time delay, represent past circumstances and to not reflect recent events

- Payment behavior can only be updated when new transactions take place. Within academic studies, cases were encountered, where companies paid invoices in time in order to maintain a clean payment history but delayed or reduced payment of employees. This behavior can only be deteced when integrating data from (social) media platforms in credit risk processes

Always act in compliance with latest legal regulations by integrating our (social) media data and software into your risk management processes
