SustainIt Solutions, the UK’s leading sustainability data consultancy, have released their Data Visualisation service which will aim to help businesses transform their data into informative, inspirational messages and support them in achieving their sustainability goals. For more than 15 years, SustainIt have helped businesses along their sustainability journey by getting the most out of their data. Until now, one of the major obstacles SustainIt’s clients have faced was the difficulty in illustrating large sets of data to different audiences and making sure the significant points were not getting lost.
The Data Visualisation service allows important data to be interpreted easily and effectively by placing them in a visual context. In the release of the service, Pippa Stockford, Creative Director at SustainIt said: “We’re really proud to release this improved service to our existing and new clients. Collecting the right data for their company is great, but the most important part of having the data is what you do with it. Making sure it tells a compelling story adds a whole new dimension. Whether the client is working with complex spreadsheets full of supplier data and wants to share the key findings in a report, or perhaps they want to understand their customers need for sustainability through a survey, it can all be transformed into something creative, digestible and inspiring”.
SustainIt worked closely with local university, UWE on their campaign to promote safe and responsible consumption of alcohol within the student sports community at the university. UWE used the Data Visualisation service as they wanted to encourage students to be responsible when consuming alcohol and make them aware of the impact it may have on all areas of performance. They also needed to encourage different ways of socialising that did not include alcohol, to be inclusive for all students. SustainIt worked with UWE to produce visually engaging infographics that presented the quantitative data collected in surveys.
The infographics were shared among students on the website and translated into social media posts. SustainIt’s Data Visualisation service transforms client’s data by pulling out key themes and stories that sit within the information. By analysing the data and working closely with the client, SustainIt will act as a translator turning key information into clear and visually engaging stories ready to share with key stakeholders or customers.
