CEO MONTHLY / Global CEO Excellence Awards 2022 12 Big Data is an incredible asset to companies, but ever more powerful resources are needed to tackle the immense amount of information that is now available. The team at Scientel Information Technology, Inc. have developed one of the largest Big Data solutions in the market, earning them tremendous success in CEO Monthly’s Global CEO Excellence Awards 2022. We dig a little deeper to discover more about this impressive company. hen Scientel was founded in the early 80s, it was specifically for the purposes of providing IT services for small to medium businesses. Whilst this proved to be the backbone of the business for many years, the industry has encountered Big Data and the team has had to adapt with it. Since refocusing the business on this endeavour, Scientel has become one of the largest Big Data solutions in the market today. This is due, in no small part, to the tireless efforts of the firm’s CEO, Norman Kutemperor. Mr. Kutemperor has overseen the transformation of the IT stalwart from a service company into a technological powerhouse. Previously, the team had focused on a solution which helped to manage the entire operations of Supply Chain companies through absolute IT automation. Automation came in two parts. The first was the automation of the business processes itself and its various components such as order processing, inventory management and finance. This ensured that instead of tracking items and transactions manually, everything would be completed automatically. The time savings were significant. The second part of the solution operates under the title of Business Intelligence. In short, it provided a place for customers to analyse their operations, making critical adjustments to increase growth through sales and profits. Both components, when combined, provided a comprehensive solution that has completely satisfied the needs of many customers. While a success, Mr Kutemperor saw more potential in how the business operated and the range of products has broadened immensely under his leadership. The true value of the Scientel name still comes from the level of performance that comes from each and every one of the team’s products. With this in mind, it will come as little surprise that the choice to move into such an innovative arena such as Big Data came from research into solutions for an entirely different problem. The SME market had a lack of database management systems, especially for small computer systems. Database management systems are necessary to develop a good business application, and seemed an obvious gap in the market. These systems, however, can prove expensive and complex and the first version of the team’s product faced intense competition from larger solution providers. The next period of research and development did uncover the future direction of the business, however. The future would be Big Data. Big Data is a consequence of technology developing so quickly. Now, more data is generated in a single day than was in the years 1946-2000 combined. This data must be captured, organised and analysed in order to derive insights that might otherwise remain hidden. With so much to analyse, however, it’s not uncommon for businesses to be overwhelmed by what is available to them. Solutions surrounding Big Data allow these businesses access to a depth of information that is truly amazing and can drive growth further than many would have considered possible. While Big Data is the solution that was eventually arrived at, the heart of Mr Kutemperor’s approach has always been a mind-set which puts people first. Any customer requests are handled as swiftly as possible, with the company managing to maintain the highest possible uptime rate for their systems. Often, the systems delivered by the team are critical to the success of a company, and so it’s important that tasks be completed without interruptions. The solutions provided by Scientel allow people to interpret Big Data at incredible speeds, and are a vital part of ensuring that customers can make decisions more quickly than ever before. Scientel has always focused on the reliability and performance of its systems, and Mr. Kutemperor made a point of promoting those who understood these principles. Having built these values into the structure of the products being offered to clients, it was possible to promote them to customers too. Stressing quality at every stage has created an environment where everyone who works for Scientel is committed to going one step beyond at all times. Currently, the Scientel team are working on the design and implementation of Large Data Warehouses for Big Data, which also involve the development of a proprietary Data Base Management System. This system is designed to scale out to large numbers of Parallel May22446 W Global Technology CEO of The Year 2022: Norman Kutemperor
