EXPERT-LEVEL ECONOMIC AND ANALYTICS EXPERTISE // RESEARCH-GRADE METHODS // FIXED, TRANSPARENT SCOPE
About TwoTwentyOne Consulting
Enterprise-level analytical thinking, sized for your organization.
Most organizations make their most consequential decisions, on pricing, hiring, inventory, programs, and expansion, without an analytics team to test the assumptions behind them. Large corporations have entire departments for that work. Everyone else relies on instinct and last quarter's spreadsheet.
TwoTwentyOne Consulting exists to close that gap. We act as your on-demand analytics function: we frame the business question, gather the evidence, and give your leadership team a clear, defensible recommendation. You get the rigor of an in-house data department for the length of a project, not the cost of a permanent hire.
The outcome is not a report. It is a decision you can defend to your board, your investors, or your funders, and a way of measuring whether it worked.
Problems We Solve
Every engagement starts with a business decision that carries real cost. The analysis is how we get you to the answer.
Build a Reliable Data Foundation
When your numbers live in disconnected systems and manual spreadsheets, every decision starts with an argument about which figure is correct. We consolidate and automate the flow of your data so leadership works from one trusted set of numbers, reporting stops consuming staff time, and no decision waits on someone rebuilding a file.
Get Answers You Don't Yet Have
Some questions cannot be answered with the data you already own. We design the surveys, samples, and collection process that produce credible evidence, so you can act on what customers, participants, or staff actually do instead of what you assume.
Know What Actually Drives Results
Which customers are worth keeping, which costs move your margin, which programs change outcomes. We separate cause from coincidence with econometric and machine learning methods, so you invest where the return is real and stop funding what is not working.
See the Metrics That Drive Better Decisions
We define the small set of indicators that genuinely predict your performance and put them in front of your leadership team every week in Power BI, Tableau, or Excel. Board and investor updates take minutes, and problems surface early enough to fix.
Prove Impact and Justify Spend
We measure what your programs and initiatives return per dollar spent, and where resources are better deployed. You walk into funder, board, and budget conversations with defensible evidence rather than anecdotes.

Evidence & Analysis
We assemble the data, test the assumptions, and pressure-test the findings until they hold up to scrutiny.

Measure What Happens Next
Optional ongoing support keeps your reporting current and tracks whether the decision produced the result we projected.
About the Founder
Mouhamed Diagne is the Founder & Economic Analytics Consultant at TwoTwentyOne Consulting LLC. Building on a background in asset management including roles in portfolio management and risk analytics. He holds a Master of Science in Economic Analytics with an emphasis in Finance from Murray State University, and a Master of Science in Finance from Clermont Auvergne University in France.
His graduate research on machine learning and behavioral risk factors was invited for presentation at the 2026 Southwestern Social Science Association Annual Meeting, and he was inducted into Phi Kappa Phi for academic excellence.
Working in institutional finance, he saw how much analytical support sits behind a single corporate decision: teams to model the options, quantify the risk, and confirm afterward whether it worked. Small businesses, startups, and nonprofits face decisions of the same consequence, on pricing, hiring, programs, and expansion, usually with a spreadsheet and an educated guess.
TwoTwentyOne Consulting was founded to close that gap: to make the same standard of evidence available to organizations that cannot justify a permanent analytics team, and to keep the focus where it belongs, on the decision the client has to make.
