Data and reporting
We bring the data your business holds across its separate systems into one place where it can be reported on. We extract it on a schedule and check it against its source, then load it into a single store on which your reports and dashboards are built.
Almost every business already holds the data needed to answer its own questions. It is spread across a finance system, an operational system and a number of spreadsheets that do not agree. Answering anything means somebody spending a morning assembling it by hand. The work is moving that data on a schedule and checking it against its source, then putting it in one place where a question is answered once.
What it covers
- Data extraction
- Data pulled on a schedule from the systems that hold it, including those with no usable export. Delivered in a consistent form.
- A single data store
- One store the whole business is loaded into, so a question is answered once rather than assembled from several places each time it is asked.
- Automated reporting
- The pack somebody rebuilds by hand every month, produced automatically and ready before the meeting.
- Dashboards
- One view across everything you run, for the questions asked often enough that nobody should have to go and look.
- Data migration
- Records carried from an old system to a new one, or between two that must agree, with their meaning intact and the totals checked at both ends.
- Synchronisation between systems
- Changes flowing between systems on a schedule or as they happen, so that neither side drifts and nobody re-keys.
- Data quality and reconciliation
- Totals reconciled against the source, with gaps and duplicates identified. Somebody is notified when a load does not match.
- Preparation for AI
- Data cleaned and structured to the point where a model or an agent can be given access to it and return an answer you would act on.
