Push Observer has a growing business and a dedicated workforce. The company provides a wide variety of content based media services to its clients. It had dozens of employees sifting through newspaper clipping, television ads, and social media to identify places where their clients’ brand had been mentioned. Even though they had put in place systems such as Volicon, which provides video content logging, there were still many gaps that required Push Observer to work manually. Once the media mentions had been identified, Push Observer staff manually faxed its reports to the client. Push Observer, based in Tanzania, wanted to expand to ten additional African countries, but the present approach requiring manual work was not scalable.

The Problem
The client was a European energy service firm interested in researching customer churn. Competitive energy markets for residential customers have meant that establishing customer retention through pricing driven contracts as well as quality of service are key. Finding leading indicators of a likelihood to terminate a relationship, within a specific time range, with a provider would empower the firm to move proactively to engage with the customer in an attempt to continue to provide energy for the customer.
The Problem
The client was a company that had invented a unique system to scan houses for possible energy remediation. It created a device that was mounted on cars and took thousands of pictures of city streets, much like Google Streetview. Unlike StreetView, though, this device took near-infrared (NIR) and LiDAR (a pulsed laser technology) images. The purpose was to scan houses to determine which would benefit the most from energy remediation services. The client was positioning itself to sell these images to local energy companies, which would then be able to optimize their remediation efforts to the houses that would benefit the most.
