Consulting in with Total Data Modeling is more than just providing advice and suggestions. It’s about being able to move into a situation, pick up the piece of an existing project, and get the job done.
The word “consult” comes down to us from ancient sources. Part of its originally meant “to consider carefully; to weigh; to ponder.” These are attributes that not only mean knowledge and ability; but the wisdom that can only be achieved through years of experience.
All too often assumptions are made in the design that falls short and aside of the business needs due to the lack of a solid verification process. Database projects are rushed half-baked into completions because the participants fail to understand the value of effectiveness. The scope-requirements-design gaps causes budgets to be exceeded and either missed deadlines or projects cut short or abandoned. The result is a negative impact on the bottom line.
The Total Data Modeling method of consulting takes into account the entire data modeling project; from the smallest specification issues to the overall need and application for the database itself. It is this balance of technical ability and knowledge that have resulted in some of the most successful data modeling and database construction projects on record.
