We think Yogi Berra was on to something. And making predictions is even more complicated when information comes from different sources with different levels of quality. At Compass we integrate multiple sources of data and knowledge to help people build a shared understanding of the range of possible outcomes that could result from various actions.

We work with clients to design and build custom models, both conceptual and quantitative, to examine the consequences of potential actions. Our goal is for models to be as simple as possible, and no simpler. To be intuitive, interactive and informative to decision makers. We use a variety of general tools to construct customized models, rather than fitting problems to pre-existing solutions or packages. We routinely employ advanced techniques and applications in Microsoft Excel, Palisade @Risk, ESRI GIS, to name a few.
