We love a challenge. We help leaders and organisations solve their most complex challenges with practical strategies based on our years of proven problem-solving capabilities, whatever the industry, sector or topic.
For this particular client, there was an urgent need to develop a framework through which to understand the personality and character (akin to “Myers-Briggs” or the “Big Five”) of their entire national population. Armed with this knowledge, they would be better equipped to design and facilitate educational and leadership programs for their aspiring and capable youth. By deploying a multidisciplinary team, working hand in hand with our client, we were able to effectively draw upon a rich collective expertise. Statistics, computer science, advanced analytics and psychology were combined with rich local and cultural knowledge from our partners and client, to produce a truly ground-breaking, psychometrically robust and culturally meaningful character framework from scratch.
The emerging output from this work represents an entirely novel contribution to this nuanced psychometric field of personality and character mapping; one which represents likely the first time that digital innovations in data gathering and automated linguistic analysis have been included in the development of such a framework.

The societal and commercial implications of the UK’s exit from the European Union are a critical consideration for the UK, which in many sectors and locales are still largely unknown in their fullness. Local government organizations in Yorkshire aligned to develop a disruptive solution to track the implications of Brexit, which we enthusiastically co-developed and enacted.
Using operational research and decision science principles, we developed a “Theory of Change” to take any economic question or concern about Brexit, and convert it into a tracking measure and evidence for policy development. All participating stakeholders were able to share unstructured ideas, which we converted into framework-based analytical scope and narrative.
This led us to develop a highly interactive and visual Brexit impact tracking tool. It measured the economic impacts of Brexit in real time, drawing upon multiple sources of real-time data, and pre-emptively alerting users to sustained negative impacts within the region and principal city. The extraordinary benefit was the ability to put hard, robust numbers against concerns and biases that dominated political discussion and urgently required evidence-based insights.
We make things easier for you. We are adaptive and dynamic in how we bring together visible, known sources of data to bring you more condensed, decision-enabling insights at your fingertips.
When an NHS organisation told us they wanted to develop a tool to pinpoint the next local outbreaks of COVID-19, there was no team more capable and hungry to step up to the challenge. We co-developed a live, predictive COVID-19 Early Warning System which incorporated the infection rates of every local authority in England and Wales. This tool was able to intelligently track and benchmark local infection levels against national trends, to identify and rank emerging COVID-19 hotspots in real-time. This provided immediate insights into the next potential high-risk areas of the country, at the earliest possible opportunity. At a time of confusion and complexity for Healthcare services across the country, we were able to provide support with meaningful and simplified insights.
We accomplished this by being able to quickly adapt to the dynamic needs of our Healthcare peers, whilst retaining our curiosity and innovation in how we develop and present information.
We are explorers and innovators. We are constantly serving to help our clients think differently about what data is needed to support them in their endeavours, and where it can come from. Sometimes this can lead to unexpected results.
We have helped many organisations to understand the culture within their teams, through the deployment of culture and values surveys. Our insights in these areas help leaders to understand where there are gaps between current and desired working culture, and how to close them. What seems intangible at first, is made possible through our ability to create the data from within your organisation, and interpret the results for you, with meaning and care.
We are also staunch advocates and explorers of Open Innovation methods; helping organisations to reject the conventions of silo mentality, and open up their research needs to a wider, and at times external, audience.
Working with Origin Data can seem like an exciting venture into the unknown, and it represents the future of analytical ways of working, which include innovation best practices and deep insights to understand your organisational wellbeing. In this space, you can harness the most from methods you didn’t think possible. With us by your side, you can always be one step ahead of your next challenge.
