Grupo Punta Cana CaseStudy 2014

Grupo Punta Cana – Puntacana Resort & Club Company Overview: 

Puntacana Resort & Club is located in the Dominican Republic within the waters of the Caribbean Sea. Its 26 square mile resort offers countless recreation, relaxation and dining opportunities and now includes Tortuga Bay (54 rooms), The Westin Puntacana Resort & Club (200 rooms), Four Points by Sheraton Puntacana Village (125 rooms), Six Senses Spa, the Puntacana Ecological Foundation and diverse residential communities (Corales, Playa Serena, Hacienda, Hacienda del Mar, Arrecife, Tortuga Bay and The Marina), a full service marina, 8 restaurants, a shopping village (03 shops), a P.B. Dye designed golf course and 2 championship golf courses.

Grupo Punta Cana – Puntacana Resort & Club Objectives:

Puntacana Resort & Club struggled with accessing the data collected from their transaction-based, operational systems to build and develop Ad-Hoc reporting. The data was there, it was just difficult to get to it.

Qualex Solution: 

Leveraging our knowledge of hospitality operational systems, data warehousing, database marketing & analytics, Qualex implemented a solution that provided Puntacana Resort & Club’s database operational, marketing and tactical team with quick & easy access to their data. Prior to Qualex, building reports, dashboards and the analysis was a manual process and often took several days or weeks.

Overall Results:  

After this implementation, these tasks were demonstrated to be reduced to minutes. Time that is being traditionally used by the Casino staff to manually build and analyze reports and dashboards can be now used to evaluate & modify existing marketing strategies; thus, giving the property the ability to allow their data to drive strategic marketing solutions to increase traffic to the property.

Quote: 

“We didn’t know how to make the most out of all the tools we had on hands and Qualex helped us to discover that and get consolidated and useful reports with information that allows us to identify significant data, such as loyal customers. Thus, we can now create more direct and effective marketing campaigns. The iQ-Gaming Solution implementation also made us aware of inconsistent data in our Warehouse.” Ruben Tineo – SAP Competence Center Manager

Catalog of Predictive Models

Guest Segmentation Model: This model segments the population of guests using cluster analysis and decision trees. Segmentation is one of the first and most basic machine learning methods. Segmenting the population of guests into distinct segments is important because creating separate model for separate segments may be time consuming and not worth the effort. But, creating separate model for separate segments usually provides higher predictive power.

Overall Property Preference Model: This model uses logistic regression to identify whether a customer is attracted by Restaurants, Bars or Shops (or combination).

Customer Day Preference Model: This model looks at guest behavior by day and identifies the day preference for attending. This model can be extended to time of day preference. This model helps hotel managers with staffing and layout requirements when mixed with other analysis.

F&B Location Preference Model:  This model looks at carded spend across food venues to identify guest’s preference for eating. This model is useful for menu changes, and for the creation of marketing offers around F&B. For instance, it could show the steakhouse could benefit from opening earlier in the week lining up with when the big spenders are hoping to attend.

Hotel RFM Model: This model forecasts VIP guests using revenue for F&B and Entertainment as well as frequency of visits and days since last visit.

Qualex Healthcare Practice II

Project Overview:

Qualex Consulting Services, Inc. (QLX) currently provides BI solutions for one of the largest healthcare insurers in the US. QLX provides consulting and implementation expertise to develop ETL processes and BI reporting using OLAP and web technology to provide access to large amounts of data stored in the customer’s “Enterprise Data Warehouse.”

Our task was to work with the actuarial team to provide tools for analyzing up to 7 years of claim and enrollment data in a way that would allow for quick and easy analysis as well as a method for providing standard monthly reports. One of the challenges with claims and enrollment data analysis besides the massive amounts of data to be analyzed, is the non-additive nature of the data. Providing summarization of large data in a “cube” environment can become complicated when drilling into claim and enrollment data. Analysis fields like Utilization and Per Member/Per Month can present significant challenges when attempting to incorporate them into a multi-dimensional structure like OLAP Cube. For example, a common actuarial metric is the calculation of Per Member/Per Month cost, or PM/PM. The numerator in this ratio is total claims cost in dollars. The denominator is total members enrolled, including members who have no claim costs and are not represented in the numerator. This metric is a challenge in standard OLAP reporting tools because the numerator and denominator represent different populations at different levels of summation. If a user wants to look at the data across various levels of claims dimensions, such as CLAIM TYPE, the numerator will change depending on whether the user is looking at Inpatient, Outpatient, Professional or Drug claims. However, the denominator, the total population of members remains constant across these levels.

Qualex Solution:

There are several tools by the client to develop and surface OLAP cubes. To develop cubes, we used the latest technology available in the market. These tools assist the developer in defining the structure of the cube and handling big amounts of data in an effective way.

The developer defines dimensions and hierarchies, or drill paths, based on the anticipated approach an analyst might take to addressing business problems. The analysis variables or measures are also defined. To surface cubes to users there are several tools available. Each of these allows the user to analyze the data by examining slices, of the cube quickly and easily. However, Qualex can provide more than just tools. With our extensive experience using a variety of BI and ETL tools, we can not only develop a tool for analysis or reporting, but can help you better understand your data. Qualex can assist with designing data structures from the complex maze of data sources inside the typical insurers’ structure. We can work with your team to not only design a valuable reporting environment, but also provide training and expertise in a wide variety of areas.

Results:

  • Non-additive fields like Utilization and PMPM are key metrics in the health care industry to help spot trend in health care costs.
  • While actuaries have a wealth of OLAP tools available to them now to analyze the data in their organization, this important statistic is not available out of the box.
  • However, there are customizations that developers can perform to bring PMPM into the analysts’ arsenal of tools.
  • Qualex has proven experience in this area and understands the complex nature of these tasks.

Energy-case-study-by-qualex-consulting-services

Client Overview:

One of the largest U.S. based independent natural gas and oil producer this energy company is a pioneer and innovator in its own industry. The company’s operations are focused on North American onshore exploration and production, engaged primarily in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing to produce crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids.

Challenges and Objectives:

One of the main challenges that this company faces is quantifying the influence that proppant has on well production. The goal was to optimize cost savings without reduction in production. The analysis showed that reducing proppant in well excavation provided the highest level of cost performance. Detailed analysis focused upon the influence of proppant types and volume in relation to production variations.

Qualex Solution:

Qualex was able to analyze over 9,000 well data sets to identify the variables with the greatest influence on well production. Qualex provided a detailed predictive analysis on the differences between best/worst performing wells, including segmenting groups/intervals within variables to explain the excessive proppant usage over a 12 month period. The resulting analytics predicted a best case scenario report which included comparison between best and worst production rates on specific targets against proppant types and volume that equated to cost saving of over $14 million on only 200 wells. Qualex also provided a report that predicted the variables that had the greatest influence on well production. Futures studies are to include environmental impact analysis.

Outcome and Results:

This Energy company gained a 30% savings on two particular regions and a county demographic analysis that provided a report on specific optimizations for well production.

Company Overview:

Qualex Consulting Services, Inc. is a technology and professional consulting company founded in 1995 has been dedicated to providing a wide range of Predictive Analytics Consulting, Information Technology and Communications related products and services.
