Mark Schultze | COO

Mark Schultze, COOMark has led the transformation of PerformanceG2 from an IBM / Cognos business partner to the premier Data Vault 2.0 implementation services and training consultancy in North America. Mark saw a gap in the marketplace for delivering repeatable, agile, scalable, platform agnostic business intelligence solutions. The industry has been a graveyard of runaway projects, false technology promises, fatigued users with little business value delivered. Mark is an expert at helping companies rapidly build their Enterprise Data Warehouses using Agile, Data Warehouse Automation, Cloud Platforms, and the Data Vault 2.0 system of Business Intelligence having been involved with 20+ Data Vault 2.0 implementations. Using our consultants, processes, and technologies, we can build out your Enterprise Data Warehouse in 1/3 the time and 1/3 the cost of “traditional” approaches. Two-to-three-week Proof of Concept (PoC) projects are a great way to get started. Contact me to discuss.
