The current Liberal government has made evidence based decision making a cornerstone in their mandate to not only create and implement public policy, but also to instill a culture of innovation. The federal government has also tied Big Data and the Innovation agenda together. Wading through the oceans of data and navigating through all that information to set a course with data driven insights is the challenge all departments and agencies continue to face. Understanding how to assess, analyze and where and when to source supplemental data that can support your objectives is a challenge government is faced with. Big data and analytics is a more progressive and modern way to conducting business, but also a vital and necessary agent to an enabling the Government’s innovation agenda.

supplemental data that can support your objectives is a challenge
government is faced with. Big data and analytics is a more progressive
and modern way to conducting business, but also a vital and necessary
agent to an enabling the Government’s innovation agenda.
