Within LTI's digital business is its LTI's Data and Analytics practice, a horizontal service line with responsibility for P&L, delivery, service portfolio management, and solutioning. LTI Analytics has a headcount of ~3.0k.
In the past two years, LTI's Data and Analytics (D&A) practice has focused on several key initiatives:
- Investment in automation platforms and accelerators, through building Mosaic Decisions, alongside Mosaic Artificial Intelligence and Mosaic Things (by other LTI Digital practices). The acquisition inNovember 2016 of Pune based start-up and ISV AugmentIQ brought its MAXIQ software product. MAXIQ has become the core of D&A's big data platform and is now incorporated into Mosaic Decisions
- Re-skilling of its personnel: this is a priority for D&A, which wants to train its personnel in recent technologies, as the market is rapidly evolving (i.e. from MapReduce to Spark, and from the R statistical language to Python)
- Creating IP: in the form of vertical solutions; primarily in assembling algorithms and in the form of technology accelerators.
