Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do we need to buy expensive software before we work with you?

    No. We are software-independent. We often find clients can do 90% of what they need with the tools they already pay for (like Excel or standard Power BI)

  • How involved does our team need to be?

    We work as an extension of your team. While we handle the heavy lifting of the data engineering, we ensure you own the final result so there's no "black box"

  • My data is currently in a mess—can you still help?

    Most of our projects start this way. We specialize in "legacy data migration" and cleaning up disparate sources to create a single version of the truth

    We are used to cleaning data, we can help you get over this issue quickly

  • What makes you different from a large global agency?

    You get direct access to our senior experts (Simon and David) throughout the whole project. No junior hand-offs
