STH Consulting reported encountering challenges with data quality but successfully produced a structured dataset, standardising hundreds of manufacturer names and categorising thousands of models consistently.
Raiffeisen Leasing corporate control and ESG head Roland Maslo said: “We were happy with the performance, the attitude, and the flexibility of STH Consulting. They brought their technology to the table, but were also open to building individual solutions for us.”
STH Consulting founder Petr Thiel said: “We are grateful for the trust from Raiffeisen Leasing and for the opportunity to work on such a meaningful and insightful project.
“It is exactly the kind of challenge that lets us leverage our tech while tailoring results to real customer needs.”
