About

One person builds it. That is the point.

Dr.D-Analytics Services is led by Dr. Shemal Dave, PhD, PMP. There is no account manager between you and the person modelling your data. The person who sits in the discovery workshop is the person who writes the views, builds the dashboards and hands over the documentation.

The background is statistics first, software second: a PhD in Taguchi-method optimisation, a PMP, and eight years running business intelligence for operators — most recently across 500+ land-based locations and an iGaming arm handling over $800M in annual bet volume.
