Mango specialise in the use of R for statistical and analytical programming; making it the biggest R consulting group in the world. R is the fastest growing global analysis tool and its open and flexible nature can be harnessed by organisations to provide cutting edge analysis. Mango’s team has wide experience of deploying R and stats based analysis routines through a variety of delivery mechanisms to suit customer requirements and infrastructures.
