Datamine Pricing

Data science and analytics consultancy are high-value investments. The costs and benefits can be hard to estimate.  The price we charge affects your decision whether or not to use an external advisor or run an internal initiative, particularly for potentially valuable projects like data analytics.

Prospective clients often ask us for a ballpark estimate of what they might pay for Datamine's expert analytical solutions and products.  On this page is guidance around our pricing and the factors which affect what you'll pay. Every solution we offer is unique, and many factors go into the pricing for your project, including:

  • The amount of data you have
    The cleanliness and complexity of that data
  • The skillset and amount of internal capability you have
  • The analytical detail and complexity you’re seeking
  • Whether AI or Machine Learning will be used in the solution
  • How will you implement or action the analysis

How much does an Analytics Roadmap cost?

Factors that determine the price for an analytics roadmap:

Programme management

  • How many interviews and/or meetings are required
  • What stage of the process you’re at (e.g. have you already got a Data Strategy?)
  • Your business direction
  • Your challenges and opportunities 
    The level of detail you want in the roadmap

 

Real-life analytics roadmap example: Datamine had a customer that had begun doing analytics but was hitting road blocks - they needed help to understand what to do to see value to the busines.  The project involved a group workshop with six individuals, including the Chief Executive, Head of IT, Analytics Manager and BI Manager, to agree objectives and ensure alignment.  From there, we looked at their data, past projects and the value they had added.  The Datamine team then worked to create a roadmap and supporting presentation for them to use as a framework for future analytics initiatives.

Analytics Roadmap Price: $45k

Factors that determine the price of a Knowledge Discovery project:

data mining purple icon

  • The size of your customer base
  • The amount of data work required
  • The types (and complexities) of questions you’re interested in
  • The amount of external information (market share) you want to include in the analysis


Real-life data mining example: An insurance client had completed some market research and wanted to understand the data behind the results, such as who their customers were, the products they were interested in and their overall market share.  We held a three-hour workshop with eight people mainly from the marketing team, answering these (and other) business questions before writing up a statement of work.  The team raised additional questions, some of which were easy to answer and others which needed complex analysis.  The next step was cleaning the data and creating a single customer view using information from three different customer bases.  Once we had finished the analysis, we presented an executive summary to the client.

Factors that determine the price of marketing automation:

marketing automation icon

  • How much data you’ve got
  • The complexity of marketing automation you want to execute
  • The amount of logic you’ve got in your data (and how much you want in future)
  • The internal training that will be needed (how many people and their expertise)

 

Real-life marketing automation example: Datamine worked with a client in the tourism industry who already had web and email functionality, but they wanted to be more sophisticated with their marketing campaigns and practices.  The team members involved, primarily from the marketing department, had evaluated several different automation platforms and decided to work with Datamine to implement the one that best suited their business needs.  The client already had a single customer view, so we worked with them to implement the new software and have continued providing ongoing support to the team and maintenance of that system.

How much does it cost to develop an Analytical Application?

After completing analytics projects the results can be operationalised using an analytical application. Apps enable the analytics findings to be implemented across business functions using custom coded app software.

Factors that determine the price of a bespoke analytical app:

analytical application icon

  • App design
  • Data form quality
  • Input information complexity
  • UX styling and user friendliness
  • How much testing you want
  • How iterative you want it to be
  • How important ‘real-time’ updates are

 

Real-life analytics app example: A banking and finance client needed an analytical pricing application to analyse and update their prices in real-time for front-line staff.  Their sales team had some basic reporting and predictive tools (mainly in Excel) but couldn’t enable real time pricing for their financial product.  The client engaged us to build several models that could take inputs from customers, calculate the exact pricing for that situation and create a proposal in real time to roll out across hundreds of staff via a web portal.

Bespoke Analytical App Price: $400k+

How much does a Datamart creation and data cleaning project cost?

Factors that determine the price of creating a Datamart:

datamart icon


  • The number of data sources
  • Data messiness
  • The level of involvement and experience of
    your team
  • What you’re trying to do with the Datamart
  • How much logic is needed to get the end result you want

 

Real-life datamart example: A supermarket chain wanted better visibility and access to its data, and a customer-centric view across multiple loyalty programmes for one of their brands.  The project involved hundreds of different stores, hundreds of thousands of product lines and millions of customers – all spread across multiple data sources.  The creation of the Datamart involved their Product, Marketing and IT departments coming together in a workshop to discuss, scope, design, build and maintenance of the datamart that would enable them to deliver the project.

How much do Predictive models, AI & Machine Learning cost?

Factors that determine the price of a predictive model or AI application:

predictive model icon

  • What you want to model or apply algorithms to (and why)
  • How much data will be involved
  • The algorithm complexity
  • The importance of real-time capabilities
  • The change needed within the models and/or AI application over time
  • How much learning the model does on its own
  • Whether the model needs to be operationalised

Real-life predictive model example: Our client came to us with some existing customer credit scoring information that they’d designed in-house using external data. It was producing sub-optimal results, so they wanted a more user-friendly and adaptable system that would improve the accuracy of predictions.  The project involved a client team workshop, receiving and analysing the data, building the models, designing the systems and then implementing them. 

Predictive Model Price: $70k

 

Real-life AI example: A client wanted to be able to recommend content for customers to read in the form of a programme that would continue learning from each interaction over time to deliver updated, relevant recommendations.  Datamine built the recommendation engine and the client's internal infrastructure team implemented it across their platform.  The machine continuously provides recommendations through their channel to customers, improving the overall customer experience.

AI Recommendation Engine Price: $60k
