Cont…. For example: “Flow of hours between domestic and offshore resources vs firm goals”, “distribution of staff hours across the year in a specific lines of service or groups to understand if we are utilizing staff in the best way”, “identifying teams where we might have an opportunity to innovate/automate repetitive tasks”

Data on internal initiatives, esp. email attachment file names and counts. Gold mine for motivating innovation by showing folks with ideas how to promote them vs just sitting on them
