Survey respondents who say they are currently getting positive results or recoveries from their FDA tools are more likely to: 01 Use advanced technology Companies that successfully deploy FDA harness sophisticated analytics tools.

Base: Among all respondents (665), 56% (370) agree and 21% (140) disagree that “We currently get positive results from the FDA tools that we use.” Multiple answers allowed, may exceed 100%. 02 Analyze large data volumes More powerful analytics tools allow organizations to analyze more data, both in terms of volume and variety. Our survey shows a high correlation between reports of positive results and the use of large data volumes. Seventy-nine percent of those reporting positive results, versus 11% of those who don’t, are using more than 10 million records, which are typically outside the domain of spreadsheets and thus require more sophisticated tools for analysis. Of those who are not seeing positive results with FDA, data volume analyzed is low, with only a small minority of respondents analyzing more than 1 million records. Companies are likely to see better results from their FDA tools when they start applying them to more of their data.
