Chicago-based management consultancy AArete provides advanced analytics capabilities through its Center for Data Excellence (CODE). AArete was named one of Consulting magazine's Seven Small Jewels in 2016 and has been one of Consulting's Fastest Growing Firms three years in a row, ranking No. 49, No. 26 and No. 37 the last three years. ALM's Liz DeVito recently sat down with CEO Loren Trimble and Mike Kim, Director and Head of CODE, to learn more.
ALM Intelligence: What led to the Center of Data Excellence (CODE)?
Trimble: CODE was a natural extension of AArete's core philosophy and founding rationale. When I launched AArete in 2008, my vision for the business was based on the premise that organizations could improve operational performance and achieve strategic cost reductions without reducing headcount. That's a big promise and we've found a way to deliver on it using a number of proven methodologies, but it's how we use advanced data and analytics that really makes an impact on our ability to serve clients better and help them achieve profitable growth.
