60+ Data Projects Since 2019
We've modernized data platforms for enterprises across Europe and North America, from fragmented spreadsheets to governed data warehouses.
Our near-100% client retention rate comes from delivering results they can measure and processes they can understand.
Transparency at Every Milestone
Weekly progress updates show exactly what's built, tested, and remaining.
Your CFO sees budget tracking, your CTO reviews architecture decisions, and your teams know what's coming next. No surprises, no black boxes.
Strategy → Engineering → BI
We handle the complete data lifecycle: strategic planning with your executives, pipeline engineering with your technical teams, and BI dashboards for your business users.
One partner, one cohesive approach, full accountability.
Governance Built In, Not Bolted On
We design data ownership, access controls, and quality rules from day one, not as an afterthought.
This prevents compliance issues before they start and gives your security team clear policies that your business teams can actually follow.
Challenges
Common Problems we help organisations overcome
We unify data sources into a structured architecture with shared models and governed pipelines.
This ensures that every dashboard and report is based on consistent, reliable data.
Your teams track progress through weekly updates showing exactly which systems are integrated and validated.
We establish automated data quality checks, validation rules, and monitoring that catch issues before they reach your reports.
Your data stewards define quality standards, and your business teams see real-time data quality scores they can trust.
We implement clear data ownership, role-based access controls, and audit logging that satisfy regulatory requirements.
Your security team sets policies, your compliance officers track them, and your business users follow rules they actually understand.
We replace manual steps with automated ingestion, transformation, and validation pipelines.
This eliminates errors, speeds up workflows, and frees your teams from repetitive tasks.
You see exactly what's automated and what manual processes remain.
We modernize your data platform with scalable cloud infrastructure and optimized pipelines, improving performance by 10-100x.
Your CFO tracks cost savings, your CTO reviews the technical architecture, and your analysts get faster query response times.
We design centralized data models and unified storage layers that serve as a single reliable foundation for analytics, BI, and AI.
Every stakeholder from executives to analysts works from the same validated datasets with clear documentation of what each field means.
A modern data strategy eliminates complexity and unlocks the full value of your data.

Results
What we achieved with our data service
Process
How we implement unified solutions
Discovery & Assessment
We map your current data landscape, business requirements, and technology constraints through stakeholder interviews with your executives, data teams, and technical architects.
Strategy & Architecture Design
We design your target data architecture, governance frameworks, security policies, and implementation roadmap tailored to your business objectives.
PoC & Validation
We build a proof-of-concept with one critical use case to validate the architecture, test data quality, and gather feedback before full-scale rollout.
Migration & Implementation
We migrate data from legacy systems in phases and build pipelines, quality checks, and analytics-ready datasets with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.
Training & Enablement
We train each team on their specific role: executives on dashboards and KPIs, data engineers on pipeline management, analysts on self-service tools and reporting.
Production & Optimization
We launch to production with continuous monitoring, monthly governance reviews, performance tuning, and platform evolution as your business needs grow.
FAQ
Data modernization projects typically range from €75K for focused initiatives (single data source integration, governance framework) to €400K+ for enterprise-wide transformations (multiple legacy systems, full pipeline architecture, BI implementation).
We start every engagement with a transparent cost breakdown showing infrastructure, migration, training, and support costs separately.
Your CFO receives ROI projections based on measurable outcomes: reduced manual processing time, infrastructure cost savings (typically 30-40% moving to cloud), and compliance risk mitigation.
Enterprise data projects typically span 4-8 months from discovery to production, depending on data volume, system complexity, and organizational readiness.
We use a phased approach: 4-6 week pilot validates architecture and builds stakeholder confidence, then incremental rollout with weekly progress dashboards showing exactly what's migrated, tested, and production-ready.
This prevents "big bang" failures and lets your teams adapt gradually rather than facing a single high-risk cutover weekend.
We use multi-layer validation at every migration phase: pre-migration data profiling, row count verification, checksum validation, and reconciliation reports comparing source and target systems.
Your CTO reviews our rollback procedures before any cutover, and we maintain parallel systems during transition so legacy data remains accessible if issues arise.
Monthly data quality reports show completeness, accuracy, and consistency metrics your compliance team can audit.
We design governance frameworks from day one rather than adding compliance as an afterthought.
This includes data classification, role-based access controls, audit logging, and automated data lineage tracking that satisfy regulatory requirements.
Your security team defines policies, your compliance officers track them through monthly governance reviews, and your business users follow documented procedures they actually understand, preventing the "security vs usability" conflict that derails many governance initiatives.
Most enterprises adopt a hybrid model: consultants handle specialized expertise (migration methodology, architecture design, compliance frameworks) while your internal teams manage ongoing operations and retain institutional knowledge.
We explicitly transfer knowledge through role-specific training, your data engineers learn platform management, your analysts learn self-service tools, your executives learn KPI interpretation.
This prevents consultant dependency while letting you access expertise that would take years to build internally.
We offer tiered support options from basic monitoring (monthly health checks, performance reports) to full managed services (24/7 support, continuous optimization, governance reviews).
During the transition period, we provide 3-6 months of hands-on support as your teams gain confidence managing the platform independently.
Monthly reports track system performance, data quality metrics, and usage statistics in business terms your executives understand, not just technical metrics.
