Decision intelligence platforms and Assettia
Assettia is the data and AI programme record: one place where an organisation keeps what its programme owns, what it has decided, and what it has proved.
Decision intelligence platforms support, augment or automate decisions that are taken many times a day: pricing, replenishment, credit, routing, fraud. Assettia records decisions that are taken a few times a year and matter for years: which use cases to pursue, what data to invest in, what risk to accept. The word "decision" appears in both. Almost nothing else does.
What a decision intelligence platform holds
Decision models and rules, the data feeds they run on, the outcomes they produce and the performance of those outcomes over time. Simulation and optimisation. Its readers are operations leaders, data scientists and the teams whose processes the decisions drive.
What Assettia holds
The strategic decisions of the programme, on its plan: what was decided, about which use case or asset, by whom, on what date and why. The evidence those decisions rested on and the evidence of what they delivered. A decision intelligence use case can itself be one of the use cases in the record, with its own decision history and value evidence.
Side by side
| What is compared | Decision intelligence platform | Assettia |
|---|---|---|
| Kind of decision | Operational, repeated, often automated | Strategic, occasional, taken by a named person |
| Frequency | Thousands a day | A handful a quarter |
| Who decides | A model or rule, with human oversight | A person, with the reason recorded |
| Primary readers | Operations, data science | Chief data officer, executive team, board |
| Role of AI | To make or recommend the decision | To draft records, which a person approves |
| Where value shows | In the outcomes the decisions produce | In value evidence linked to each use case |
| What it produces | Decisions and their performance metrics | A decision log and board reports |
| Typical owner | Head of operations or analytics | Chief data officer |
Where they overlap
Barely. Both keep a history of decisions. In a decision intelligence platform that history is a performance record of automated choices. In Assettia it is a log of human choices with reasons, kept for governance and for the board.
When an organisation needs both
When it has operational processes worth automating and a programme worth governing. The decision intelligence platform improves the process. Assettia records whether building it was the right call, what it depends on and what it delivered.
How they work together
The decision intelligence system is a use case in the record. Its business case, its data dependencies, the decision to build it, its risks and its measured outcomes all live in Assettia, and the platform itself lives where operations run it.
Questions people ask
Does Assettia make decisions?
No. It records decisions people make, with the person and the reason, and links them to the evidence.
Can a decision intelligence use case be tracked in Assettia?
Yes. It is a use case like any other: scored, decided, linked to its data and risks, and proved by the outcomes it delivers.
Does the record store the automated decisions themselves?
No. Those stay in the platform that makes them. The record holds the decision to build and run it, and the evidence of its value.
