FPX Cluster Metrics
FPX analyze of e-mail communicationTo identify the volume and frequency of
communication against different ‘bridges’ (categories) within the cluster network

FPX Data Analysis : Step 1
1. Extract Raw Data1. Establish connections to mail server(s)2. Extract emails from Mail server(s)3. Consolidate mail data from different sources4. Update mail extraction routines

FPX Data Analysis : Step 2
2) Clean and Categorize Data1. Extract From and To Domains only to
protect privacy2. Remove domains that are not needed3. Categorize domains by Bridge4. Store into data warehouse5. Update extraction routines

Domains with less than 4 communications were ignored.
We also eliminated ‘Junk’ emails

Intensity of Communication Per Contact - Actual vs Goal

Intensity goals generally exceeded. Management should review if intensity can be traded for diversity
Confidential. Copyright TSG 2014
FPX Management Insights• The analysis shows that the total volume of communication each month is about
2000. Staff is generally at their maximum email load at this level.
• This means that to reach the diversity goals, management will have to discuss the intensity in each cluster category, since a reduction in intensity (communication frequency) would allow for an increase in diversity (number of contacts) of email communication work load.
• Given there are no additional people resources in any given month, the data allows management to review and potentially make changes to the underlying and hidden nature of how staff are communicating. This kind of insight has never been revealed before until this type of analysis.
• This can also lead to a review of Intensity Goals (Average Number of Communications per Contact) since FPX has generally exceeded its original goals
Confidential. Copyright TSG 2014
FPX Management Insights• The data shows a consistent picture each month for 2013, with FPX needing to review its
Intensity-Diversity balance. The data also reveals some of the stories of FPX during 2013, such as the work-load of different months. The data correctly reflected that in June the FPX team was extremely engaged in a special ‘Geo Life Region’ project. The data also seems to indicate FPX is growing its education side - Education Partners appear to be trending upwards.
• A question for management is ‘What is the ideal communication data ‘constitution’ (profile) of a cluster?’. Is the data profile for FPX unique or will there be common trends across all clusters? Will there be different profiles of how the data looks based on the maturity of a cluster and/or its market focus?
• FPX will continue to measure the bridges of the cluster to better understand work performance and strength of the cluster bridges during 2014.
• It is hoped that similar analysis and comparison with other clusters will help to provide a more comprehensive and longitudinal insight into cluster innovation management and performance.
