About CDP
With over 30 years’ experience solving the data issues of New Zealand’s largest organisations, CDP has emerged as a leader in creating performance management solutions. Our reputation is based on proven expertise and the best-of-breed products we represent. We use all components of the IBM Information Management platform in our projects including IBM Cognos; IBM InfoSphere products; and IBM Optim. In addition we represent SPSS Data Mining, Statistical Analysis and Predictive Analytics solutions in New Zealand.
The value we offer our customers is to enable perceptive business insight. This means providing operational areas of the organisation with faster, more accurate data, allowing them to make clear, informed decisions.
Improving performance requires the ability to have a transparent view of historic information, and the ability to predict and model future performance. This capability needs to be driven by a consistent, integrated platform of Information Management tools with the scalability to reach across the enterprise.
CDP have built up a large amount of experience in delivering solutions focused around meeting business requirements. Our belief and experience is that there must be a continuity of design between all parts of the solution from the Data Warehouse, Planning Applications and Business Intelligence to the end users.
Our approach is “Do it once and do it right”, which doesn’t necessarily mean spending much more in the implementation to provide a solution that is cheaper and easier to maintain, and provides a business focused solution. Of our expert team of 38, over 25 are dedicated to on-going customer support. From our offices in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and London we offer relationship management, customer support, training and consulting for CDP’s 250 plus clients.
Our commitment
We have identified 3 key values, fundamental to our company culture, staff and client relationships.
Firstly CDP people have a thirst for knowledge; they are keen to explore news ways in which our technology can be utilised therefore ensuring our clients are getting the greatest return on their investment and greater levels of effectiveness. In addition, as a company we have a tenacious attitude towards our clients problems and we will persevere to the point an objective is achieved and expectations have been met. Finally, receiving good service is expected in our industry; however CDP is continually refining its processes and systems to ensure we offer superior service to all our clients.
Our commitment to our clients is to provide them with the most advanced, functional performance management solutions available. To ensure their solution is working hard for them and to persevere until it does. And to ensure that through all of their dealings with CDP, they receive the highest level of customer service.
