Client Stories

Practical support with visible outcomes

What clients experienced:

We had Power BI for 3 years and not a single dashboard anyone trusted. Tobi's team threw out our previous data model in week 2, rebuilt it in 6 weeks, and the dashboards are now what we run the weekly leadership meeting from.

L.R., MD, professional-services firm, Bristol

The customer-segmentation analysis identified a £400k opportunity in our existing customer base. We built a winback campaign on top of the segments and recovered £230k of it in the first 90 days.

H.S., COO, e-commerce business, Manchester

I asked for a dashboard to predict machine downtime. They built that, but on the way pointed out our scrap-rate data was the higher-leverage number. They were right. £80k of annualised savings.

K.M., Operations Director, manufacturing SME, Sheffield

How It Works

A structured route from need to outcome

Here’s the process:

Step 1

We review your current setup, constraints, and priorities so business data analytics is scoped against the real operating context.

Step 2

Deliver the Agreed Scope

We execute the agreed work with clear milestones, practical communication, and visible progress against defined outcomes.

Step 3

Review Outcomes and Next Actions

We close with recommendations, implementation notes, and clear next steps to sustain the gains from the engagement.

Step 4

Step 4

Shielded delivery

Trust-The-Numbers Guarantee

If during the engagement we discover one of our published numbers is wrong, we tell you within 48 hours of discovery, root-cause it inside the next sprint, and document the lineage fix. Trust beats speed in analytics; we will never let you defend a bad number in a board meeting.

Frequently asked questions

Why not just buy Power BI or Tableau and be done?

Power BI and Tableau are tools. We build the analytics function — the data model, the metric definitions, the dashboards that match how your business actually decides things, and the governance so the numbers don't drift. The tool comes second, after the function is designed.

How long until we have usable dashboards?

Standard SME engagement (10-15 source systems, 4 dashboards, 8 KPI definitions): kick-off to first usable dashboard in 6 weeks, full production by week 12. We never deliver dashboards faster than week 6 because the underlying data model has to settle first.

Do you replace our analyst?

No. Most of our SME clients have either no analyst, one overworked analyst, or an analyst who is technically strong but lacks senior support. We sit alongside, do the architectural work, and either upskill your person to take it on or run it for you on retainer. We have never replaced an in-house analyst.

What about data quality — our data is a mess?

Standard scope. The first phase of every engagement is a 4-week data-quality and lineage audit: where data lives, who owns it, what it is supposed to mean, and what cleanup the source systems need. We will not build dashboards on dirty data because the resulting decisions are worse than no dashboards.
