  • Tech / platform changes are a part of life. As improved technology becomes available, we need (and want) to move with the times. The same is true with your data stack. As an example; we’ve seen an increase in migrations from Qlik to Power BI. We’re experts in this area.

  • Herein lies the key to bringing your data to life. Once the engineers have the data flowing, it’s time to understand what you’ve got (analysis), how it fits together (modelling), and how it can be used (visualization). Data Visualization is where the end user interacts with the data and is the culmination of all the hard work that’s gone before.

    The foundation of beautiful and effective data visualization is a robust and efficient data model. This will only happen if logical, thorough analysis has been carried out first. We do this day in and day out, so leave it with us.

  • Does your analytics infrastructure need a complete overhaul? Would your data stack be fit for purpose, if certain elements were upgraded? Perhaps you’re contemplating the first steps towards becoming a data-driven organization. This can be daunting but we’re here to help.

    We will take you through a thorough assessment process and present a number of options, highlighting the pros and cons of each. Once we’re all in agreement on the route forwards, we’ll get to work on your solution.

  • We have many years of experience working with data in business. We have seen some wonderful ideas along the way but we’ve also seen some terrible ones.

    We know what works and we can match your precise circumstances, to the most appropriate end point. There are often multiple solutions to the same challenge but we’ll always present options in an unbiased and objective manner. We don’t have direct partnerships with any technology providers, so you can trust that our opinions are fully impartial. Our relationships are with our clients, and we will always act in their best interests.

  • There are many ways to achieve a code based objective but they’re not always equal. Sometimes, a piece of code appears to be reasonably efficient with lower data volumes but is then found wanting as volumes ramp up.

    Some functions are more memory intensive than others, and these can blow out load times. It might even be that the code and / or logic are just plain wrong. Whatever it is, we have the requisite skills to remediate any shortcomings.

  • We are project professionals. We deliver your project, get you up to speed, and then move on to the next one. We obviously hope that you love us and bring us back to do more work for you (and tell all your friends about your life changing experience). We will not become embedded in your business for any longer than is necessary, or desired.

    We’ll document everything that we do down to the minute details, and provide the requisite training for you to master the tools that we implement. We also offer support and training packages for when your circumstances, or personnel change. Like most of what we offer, this will be tailored to you and your business.

  • Machine Learning and AI are at the top of everyone’s wish list at the moment. Potential use cases include, but are in no way limited to, forecasting, identifying anomalies (i.e. fraud detection), and predicting churn.

    It may feel as though ML / AI is just too complex to use in your business but you’ll be surprised - you’re probably using it in some form or another already.

    We can help demystify this brave new world and give you ideas for how it may be used to your advantage. If it sounds good, we’ll implement and support a solution for you.

Our philosophy.

Deliver quality solutions quickly, accurately, and on budget.

Ensure that the solution fits the client’s needs and addresses the problem with absolute precision.

Challenge the status quo and provide superior alternatives that can outperform the competition.

Communication is the cornerstone of success. Communicate frequently and effectively. Feedback loops enable us to thrive and drive continuous improvement.

Sharing the knowledge is paramount. Knowledge transfer is not just a ‘nice to have’, it is absolutely necessary and must be prioritised at all times.
