Metric-X helps companies manage and analyze their data
We specialize in information technology services based on Microsoft technologies
A passion for solving business problems by applying IT knowhow
Metric-X was founded in 2000 by Saad Shah in Detroit, Michigan. Prior to starting Metric-X, Saad worked at EDS and Cambridge Technology Partners. The most enjoyable aspect of working at these companies had been taking a concept and turning into a functioning, live system. There are many IT professionals who find it very intrinsically rewarding to work with clients and IT team members to design and build a solution, and to then see their clients realize the value from the solution once it is in operation. Metric-X was founded to bring such people together and create the right working environment so that they could thrive in designing and building solutions. Our mantra from Day One has been to keep things simple: Rapidly deliver projects that yield business value quickly.
Saad Shah has a 20-year career combining experience in quantitative methods, software development and project management to help companies implement Customer Relationship Management and Business Intelligence solutions.
A Winning Approach to Technology Solutions
We have competed for projects against the largest IT services firms, and won. Our value proposition to our clients is that we deliver a full project lifecycle in the right timeframe by focusing on the 80/20 rule and by keeping customizations to a minimum. We work with a very lean footprint. We are well aware of the pressure that traditional consulting firms face trying to keep their team billable. We try to keep our fixed costs low and focus on providing services that our clients value at competitive prices.
