The EWS Difference

Data Management Built on Outcomes, Not Implementations

Strategy Before Implementation

Data management programs that begin with technology selection rather than business strategy deliver infrastructure, not outcomes. EWSolutions always starts with your organization’s competitive objectives - translating them into a data strategy that every subsequent architecture and implementation decision is measured against.

91% Cost Reduction, Documented

EWSolutions’ proprietary data management methodologies - refined across 155+ enterprise programs since 1997 - consistently reduce program costs by over 91% compared to conventional approaches. This is not a projection. It is the documented outcome of nearly three decades of structured, methodology-driven delivery.

Governance & Quality Embedded by Design

Data management programs without embedded governance and quality controls degrade over time, requiring repeated remediation investment. EWSolutions integrates data governance, quality frameworks, and metadata management from the outset - building programs that maintain their integrity for years, not quarters.

Built for AI & Analytics From Day One

The organizations winning with AI are those whose data management foundations are strong enough to support it. EWSolutions designs every data management program with AI readiness as a structural requirement - so your investment today directly accelerates your analytics and AI capabilities tomorrow.

Leadership

The Strategic Partner Behind 155+ Enterprise Programs

Every EWSolutions data management engagement is personally directed by David Marco, whose 28-year career has defined the discipline - from data warehousing and metadata management through modern data governance, AI data infrastructure, and enterprise-scale data strategy.

David Marco does not delegate the strategic decisions on client engagements to junior consultants. The methodology, the architecture design, the implementation oversight - all of it reflects 28 years of direct, senior-level data management delivery across industries where program failure is not an option. The result: a 100% project success rate since 1997.

Client Results

Data Management That Delivers When the Stakes Are Highest.

EWSolutions has built enterprise data management programs for the world’s most data-critical organizations - where the quality, integrity, and availability of data directly determines organizational performance.

“David Marco is a real visionary in data management. At the same time, he and the consultants at EWSolutions understand the everyday challenge of managing the enterprise’s data responsibly. Most practitioners can do one but not the other. EWSolutions has the skill and savvy to do both - as well or better than anyone I’ve met. They always worked in the spirit of partnership and were consistently flexible to the changing needs of our project.”

“Mayo Clinic’s Enterprise Data Trust is already realizing palpable success from our cancer center projects, enabling analysis of clinical trial capture and accrual patterns, patient volumes, and clinical trial patient filtering. An infection analytics project standardized data definition and capture of infection-related case data across the enterprise - enabling a single standardized, enterprise-based reporting and analysis environment.”

“As Chief Data and Security Officer at UHG’s Ingenix division, I engaged EWSolutions to guide us through a transition of our massive data sets and deploy a Data Governance framework. David Marco sent his top professionals to assist us. They blended with my staff, quickly gained the confidence of our business partners, and ensured all activities were focused on our immediate and long-term needs so ARRA and strict regulatory standards could be met.”

Ian Rowlands

Vice President of Product Management, ASG

“Right from the start David Marco understood the business need and strategic technical challenges of our corporate initiative. The knowledge, breadth of skills, and versatility of EWSolutions provided the program management, technical support and mentoring which the data warehouse team needed to successfully implement the merged organization’s first reporting data mart - ahead of schedule.”

What Data Leaders Ask Us Most

The most common questions from CDOs and Enterprise Architects evaluating an enterprise data management partner.

What is enterprise data management consulting?

Enterprise data management consulting covers the strategy, architecture, governance, quality, and lifecycle management of data across the entire organization. EWSolutions delivers the full scope - from data strategy and architecture through data quality, master data management, metadata management, and AI-ready data infrastructure - built on the principle that data is a strategic asset that must be actively managed to deliver competitive value. Unlike technology-first approaches, EWSolutions begins with business objectives and builds data management programs that directly serve them.

Why do enterprise data management programs fail to deliver ROI?

Most data management programs fail for five reasons: technology selected before strategy is defined, governance treated as a separate workstream rather than embedded from the start, data quality addressed as a one-time project rather than an operational discipline, no clear ownership model for data assets, and no measurement framework connecting data management investment to business outcomes. EWSolutions addresses all five before implementation begins - which is why our programs deliver the outcomes that other firms cannot sustain.

What is master data management and does our organization need it?

Master data management creates a single, authoritative version of your organization’s most critical shared data domains - typically customer, product, supplier, and location. If your organization experiences inconsistent reporting across business units, duplicate records, or downstream analytics that produce different answers to the same question depending on the source system, you need MDM. EWSolutions designs MDM programs that resolve these inconsistencies at the source rather than attempting to reconcile them downstream - eliminating the problem permanently rather than managing it continuously.

How does data management connect to AI readiness?

AI models are only as reliable as the data they are trained and operated on. Organizations with strong data management foundations - governed, high-quality, well-documented data with clear lineage - can deploy AI responsibly and scale it confidently. Organizations without these foundations produce AI outputs that are neither trustworthy nor explainable. EWSolutions designs data management programs with AI readiness as a structural requirement, ensuring that the investment you make in data management today directly accelerates your AI and analytics programs tomorrow.

How quickly does a data management program deliver results?

EWSolutions uses a phased delivery approach that prioritizes the highest-value data management capabilities first - so organizations begin realizing measurable outcomes well before the full program is complete. Initial capability delivery typically occurs within 60–120 days. The 91% cost reduction our methodology delivers compounds as each phase builds on a governed, high-quality data foundation, rather than requiring repeated remediation of problems created in earlier phases.

What distinguishes EWSolutions from other data management firms?

Three things: senior leadership on every engagement (David Marco personally directs all programs, not junior consultants), a proprietary methodology proven across 155+ programs that reduces costs by over 91%, and a 100% project success rate sustained since 1997. Most data management firms offer platform expertise or process frameworks. EWSolutions offers the strategic depth and implementation discipline that turns data management from a cost center into a competitive advantage - backed by a track record that spans nearly three decades.
