Who we are

THE PAS INITIATIVE

The Pragmatic Analytic Services (PAS) initiative was jointly developed by management consultancy and creative agency komm.passion and Data.Science.Consulting. With PAS, komm.passion CEO Prof. Dr. Alexander Güttler and Dr. Klaus Holthausen, CTO of Data.Science.Consulting, are striving for a more efficient, leaner and more exact new kind of business analysis. With this goal in mind, the initiative combines and improves on a diverse range of tools – including many innovative new ones.

Top value for money

“Good” doesn’t always have to mean “expensive”. PAS works in close collaboration with you as the customer to develop precisely the analytical concept that you really need. Cost-efficiency and high quality are the top priorities. For example, the realization of a foundational social media analysis is available starting as low as 12,000 to 15,000 euros. Just get in touch with us and see for yourself how persuading our high-performance offer really is.
