Our innovative approach to data migration
Discover how VGT Data Consultancy is transforming data migrations for local government with our unique AI-powered methodology. We're committed to efficiency, accuracy, and client satisfaction.
What makes us stand out
VGT Data Consultancy revolutionises data migration by integrating Data Engineering Catalogue, Field Mapping, and Data Extraction into a single, connected AI web app tool. This enables a modern software engineering approach to data migrations. Our AI handles the easy tasks and provides a robust initial generation for medium difficulty tasks. Manual intervention is then focused precisely where it's needed, preventing staff burnout and project delays often associated with traditional, labour-intensive methods.
Our client journey, step by step
When working with VGT Data Consultancy, clients are trained on the new system by the vendor, entering candidate records that mimic those in the source system. Instead of documenting and translating this understanding into 'Data Speak', our AI analyses both source and destination data to 'reverse engineer' a specification. We then refine and discuss this, demonstrating how the new data applies the specification, equivalent to 'unit testing' in software engineering. Once these 'unit tests' are satisfactory, a test transfer is conducted to ensure all components work cohesively, avoiding the significant rework common in traditional approaches where errors are only found after a full test transfer.
Benefits for local government
Local government organisations choosing VGT Data Consultancy gain access to an auditable AI tool that documents existing data and assists in field mapping. With over 30 years of experience in field mappings, we understand the challenges of disjointed processes and outdated documentation. Our AI-driven tool seamlessly covers Software Engineering Data Catalogue, Field Mapping, and SQL authoring. This SQL can be applied directly to your source database for two specific Built-Environment software vendors, allowing you to validate data using their own tools. This integrated approach ensures accuracy, transparency, and compliance for critical public sector data.
"VGT Data Consultancy ensured our data migration was not only seamless but also provided complete oversight and auditability. Their approach truly sets them apart."
