A graph solution allows us to create a connection layer that facilitates consistent aggregation and ingestion of diverse information types from sources, internal or external, to the organization. Graphs boost knowledge discovery and efficient data-driven analytics to understand a company\u2019s relationship with customers and personalize marketing, products, and services.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Real World Examples:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Customer 360 for a Commercial Real-Estate Company<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe lost a multi-million-dollar value customer after one of our regional sales reps offered the customer a property that the customer already owned.

With the size of data and dropping attention spans of online users, digital personalization has become one of the top priorities for companies&#8217; business models. Especially with third-party cookies being phased out, companies need innovative ways to understand and target their online customers with relevant and personalized content. Graph analytics provide a meaningful way to aggregate information about a customer and create relationships with your solutions and services to determine a way to decide what information is right to share with a customer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Real World Examples:<\/h3>\n<p><b>Customer Journey Map for a Healthcare Training and Information Provider<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe want to understand a patient&#8217;s journey to serve the next best content and information using the right channel and cadence.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe want to deliver tailored training content and course recommendations based on our audience and their setting so that we can connect users with the exact learning content that would help them better master key competencies.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Solution Outcomes: <\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A semantic recommendation service that is beating accuracy benchmarks and replacing manual processes aggregating content &#8211; that is supporting higher-quality, more advanced, and targeted recommendations with clear reasons.

Many organizations now have a goal to establish a standardized, central platform to get insights on environmental impacts associated with their supply chain processes. However, this information is typically stored in disparate locations, often hidden within departmental documents or applications. Additionally, there is usually no standardized vocabulary used across different industries, leading to inconsistent understandings of key business and supply chain concepts. Graphs reconcile such data continuously crawled from diverse sources to support interactive queries and provide a graphic representation or model of the elements within supply chain, aiding in pathfinding and the ability to semantically enrich complex machine learning (ML) algorithms and decision making.<\/p>\n<h3>Real World Examples:<\/h3>\n<p><b>Aggregating Data to Reduce Carbon Footprints of Supply Chain for a Global Consultancy\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe are at a pivotal time in ESG where our clients are coming to us to answer questions like:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s the best material we can use to package Product x? <\/span><\/i><\/li>\n<li><i style=\"font-size: 15px;\">What shipping route is the most fuel efficient? <\/i><\/li>\n<li><i style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Who was my most ESG compliant plant in 2020?\u201d<\/i><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b><i>Solution Outcomes:<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Graph embedded, machine-readable relationships between key supply chain and ESG concepts in a way that do not require tables and complex joins that enabled the firm to leverage their extensive knowledge base around methods to reduce environmental impact and guided them in building a centralized database of this knowledge.

A risk issue in one financial institution could result in a domino effect for many. As such, most large financial organizations have moved their data to a data lake or a data warehouse to understand and manage financial risk in one place. Yet, the biggest challenge for risk analysis continues to suffer from lack of a scalable way of understanding how data is interrelated. A graph or network is enabling institutions to model and visualize these connections as a collection of nodes and points that specifies the exact link between certain financial concepts and entities. Graph-based solutions further leverage the relationships among the entities involved to create a semantically enhanced machine learning model.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Real World Examples:<\/h3>\n<p><b>Financial Risk Reporting for a Federal Financial Regulator\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cData scientists and economists were finding it difficult to make efficient use of siloed data sources in order to\u00a0 easily access, interpret, and\u00a0 regulatory functions including answering questions like:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are the compliance forms and reporting requirements for Bank X?<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n<li><i style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Which financial institutions have filed similar risk compliance issues?<\/i><\/li>\n<li><i style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Which financial institutions are behind on their risk reporting and filings this year?<\/i><\/li>\n<li><i style=\"font-size: 15px;\">What\u2019s the revision history and the corresponding policies and procedures for a given regulation?\u201d<\/i><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Realtime Fraud Detection For Multinational e-Commerce Company<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe want to tap into our extensive historic listing data to understand the relationship between packages being rerouted, listings, and merchants to ultimately detect shipping scams so that we can minimize the fraud risk for online merchants from \u2018unpaid\u2019 and fraudulent purchases on their listing items.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Solution Outcomes:\u00a0<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Graph data that enables explorations, linking and understanding of entities such as product, categories\/customer, orders that supports risk fraud pattern detections for the organization\u2019s risk engine algorithm.

The process of knowledge transfer and the challenge to enable strategic alignment of processes and data is becoming a rising concern to the already delicate success of M&amp;As. For a knowledge graph, data relationships are first class citizens. Thus, graphs offer ways to semantically harmonize, store, and connect similar or related organizational concepts. The approach further represents information in the way people speak using taxonomies and ontological schemas that allow for storing data with organizational context.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Real World Examples:<\/h3>\n<p><b>Product\/Solution Alignment for the World\u2019s Leading Provider of Content Management and Intellectual Property Services<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe have gone through multiple M&amp;As over the past 5 years.
