Data science services for better decision-making

SYSTRA provides expert data analysis and visualisation to help clients in multiple sectors make informed decisions at all stages of their major infrastructure projects.

We live in a data age. Data is collected, maintained, shared and used in growing quantities – for many purposes – by governments, businesses and other organisations across all sectors. It is used to provide insights and analyses that enable new projects, products and services to be developed – with the potential to create trillions of pounds of value.

Navigating the Data-Driven Landscape

For planners and developers of major infrastructure projects, gathering, analysing and generating actionable insights from data to inform their plans and designs can be a daunting prospect. Specialised data science expertise is required to manage, process and interrogate large volumes of data, and to produce visualisations that present insights and analysis in accessible and useable formats.

To overcome these challenges the industry needs to explore a wide range of options, including delivery models such as franchising, to find the right solution for local bus services.

SYSTRA has expertise across multiple data science disciplines to help organisations produce meaningful insights from the data they collect and create. We use scientific methods, maths and statistics, programming, analytics, artificial intelligence (AI) and storytelling to identify and explain the insights hidden within data.

Scientific support for purposeful decision-making

The team of data scientists at SYSTRA has the multi-disciplinary expertise to offer a wide range of data management, data processing and automation, data analytics and visualisation services for clients on a wide range of projects. These projects could include transport infrastructure developments, energy generation programmes, environmental projects or construction schemes.

Data collection, processing and analysis

Our services cover the whole spectrum of data science requirements for our clients. From initial strategic advice to data gathering and preparation to processing and analysis, through to clear communication of our findings and insights. We provide the high-quality insight and decision support that clients on major development projects need to optimise efficiencies, achieve cost savings and deliver positive outcomes.

Projects in action

Data science with clarity and purpose

Clients can choose to access our services for any aspect of data processing, management or analysis – or commission us to deliver a complete end-to-end project covering all of our data science disciplines.

The individual elements of our service include:

  • Data strategy and planning: We can help you to understand the transport data you have and how it can be made available to support your goals.
  • Data capture: Gathering raw structured and unstructured data from all relevant sources.
  • Data preparation: Converting raw data into a consistent format suitable for analytics or artificial intelligence models.
  • Data processing: Examining the data for biases, patterns, ranges, and distributions of values to determine its usability analysis.
  • Data analysis: Using statistical data analysis, geospatial location intelligence and predictive analytics techniques to extract patterns and insights from the data.
  • Data visualisation: Our insights are presented through interactive, fully customisable dashboards and mapping tools.

Insights to support efficient, optimal project delivery

The aim of our data science team is to help clients achieve time and cost savings, and to deliver high-quality projects that optimise positive outcomes and impacts. We help clients to extract the important insights from large and wide-ranging datasets, helping to make the complex simple and understandable.

We support well-informed decision-making by communicating our findings clearly and accessibly, using dashboards, visualisations and storytelling to convey the key messages from our data analysis.
