This is where most of our conversations with a client starts - you’ve got questions and no one’s been able to give you a good answer yet. But getting good answers to questions in today’s association world can be difficult. There’s often a variety of systems - not only your AMS but systems that manage your meetings, journals, hotels, abstracts, and education data - and they’re not all integrated. Each system does have its own bank of reports, but looking at data across systems is something that is very difficult. Let’s face it - you don’t want to deal with four Excel extracts and manually merge data together to build that one report for the next board meeting.

Easily bringing the data you need together will not only save you lots of time but more importantly give you the information you need that lets you figure out if members who submit abstracts also buy your educational products more often than other members. You need data like this, in easy to use reports and dashboards, to really move the needle and make a difference at your association.

And you also need tools to help you not only see what has happened in the past but what will happen. Perhaps predictive modeling - knowing what a member is likely to do tomorrow may sound out of reach for you, but in many cases it’s not with Proximo’s tried-and-true analytics methodologies coupled with our modern, unique and proprietary AI techniques. We work with you and your data - both internal and external - to answer your most difficult questions.

While we are technical data wonks at heart, we don’t give you obtuse statistical models and walk away. We excel at delivering insights: trying to turn the data into a story that makes sense and describes in plain English what is going on - with the customer, employee, product line, or whatever we’re analyzing. This is key to real data driven decision making.

Data Warehousing & Integration

Often we’re asked to deliver on Business Intelligence & Analytics, but when we get into it, the data needed is often fragmented, siloed, incomplete, unclean…does this sound familiar? We know the data in our companies isn’t always easily accessible. So Proximo does a lot of data integration work. This can be a one-off integration to answer a specific question or the build of a “data warehouse” that continually loads, cleans and integrates data so you always have it accessible to you.

We work with all of the major database vendors, as well as with data lakes and highly unstructured data. If your association has a standard technology stack, we’ll be able to easily work with it and fit into your existing environment.

Data Registries

You may be an association that already has a data registry.  Or one that is considering it.  Registries support an industry and are sometimes driven by federal regulations.  For instance, a clinical data registry records information about patients’ health status and the care they receive over time, allowing physicians to see what treatments are available and how patients with different characteristics respond to certain treatments.

Registries are not simply “another database” or something casually assembled.  They contain very sensitive data. They may be impacted by multiple government laws.  The volumes can far exceed what is typical in a membership association environment.  They can be a big revenue driver. 

For a registry, it pays to work with a partner that knows this space and has a successful track record.  Talk to us and see how we can bring our leading experience to your association. 

“ACC has been working with Proximo since 2009. Their team is reliable, talented, and can be counted on to deliver work on-time.  They work in partnership with our development team and often come to us with ideas on how improvements can be made to work products. Their work on our data warehouse has been an important part of the success of our NCDR product line, which delivers patient outcome reports and analytics to health care providers nationally.”

“AAOS has partnered closely with Proximo since 2019. We did so because they had the right experience in developing and managing large industry data registries in the healthcare space. They haven’t disappointed and have been invaluable in helping us build out and expand our orthopedic registries and have been a consistent and knowledge partner since then, from requirements to integration and visualization to testing.”

Culture of Analytics

“If you build it, they will come.” Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case. 

In order to successfully upgrade to a new analytics platform, adapting to a new way of working together is essential. Your culture has to embrace it, understand why data analytics and adapting together is important, and believe that it can be done. 

Culture of Analytics is a comprehensive culture development program that focuses on the human component technology adoption. By giving your people the confidence they need to make more data-driven and human-centric decisions, they learn a new way of thinking, working, and decision making.  

So if you’ve already invested in this new data and analytics technology — or are about to — empower your people to use it, understand why it’s helpful for them, and motivate them to play a more proactive and productive role.  We’re here to help you and your leadership team build an internal culture that embraces learning, optimizes new technology, and encourages curiosity. After completing Culture of Analytics, you and your team will be able to work with more ease and effectively.

Culture of Analytics is delivered via a collaboration between Proximo and Innovators Box. For more information, visit us at Culture of Analytics.
