I think the biggest value that data science is bringing to our organization is having someone with more subject matter expertise who knows how to write some code to get things done. Call us what you will, but before the recent boom of data science our organization was quite limited to excel and MS access. Having a team of folks who could aggregate down a massive dataset for other subject matter experts to use is quite valuable. It can also be done quick enough that you barely notice the time lost to the big projects.
