What we built for others
Worked examples with the question they started from and the number they ended at. A report that went from 24 seconds to 1.3 seconds after the model was rebuilt, more than 200 Oracle reports reduced to 75 dashboards people use, and 242 general ledger accounts mapped to balance sheet and profit and loss across four levels.
What it delivered elsewhere
| Result | Where |
|---|---|
| 24 seconds to 1.3 seconds | Load time of a Power BI report at a marine contractor, after the data model was rebuilt |
| 200+ reports to 75 dashboards | Oracle reports at a water authority, reduced to dashboards people use |
| 242 accounts across 4 levels | General ledger accounts from Exact Online mapped to balance sheet and P&L |
The pattern underneath
Almost every engagement starts with a dashboard and grows into the platform underneath. Not because we sell it that way, but because the dashboard makes visible what the layer underneath cannot yet deliver: history that is missing, definitions that disagree, and a refresh that loads the source system.

Book half an hourFrequently asked questions
Can we speak to a reference?
Yes, once a conversation is serious. The reviews on this site are published with names and roles, so you can also verify them yourself on LinkedIn before we ever speak.
Why are some clients not named?
Because not every client wants their reporting landscape discussed publicly, and that is a reasonable position. Where the name is not there, the figures and the approach still are.
