A faster, more cost-effective way to accelerate transformation, guaranteed

We fast-track data maturity for manufacturers, delivering pre-built, high-impact analytics far quicker than in-house teams or third-party consultants.

Our modular approach means we adapt to your needs, not the other way round, ensuring you get a flexible but incredibly effective solution that delivers data clarity in days, not months.

We’re so confident in our ability to deliver that we give every client the following guarantees:


80%
of your BI analytics ready out of the box from day one
50%
faster implementation, freeing up our team’s time and budget
50%
reduction in data engineering costs

*The “80% analytics-ready” figure applies specifically to engineering tasks such as data ingestion, integration, and preparation. The 50% faster implementation and 50% reduction in engineering costs are based on our observed averages across typical client projects. Actual results may vary depending on project scope, data quality, and unique business requirements.

Drive faster outcomes with professional service accelerators

For manufacturers seeking to accelerate transformation timelines and outcomes, we offer a suite of advisory, implementation, enablement and support services.

Implementation Services deliver scalable, secure and high-performance data environments that align with your strategic objectives and business realities.

They include end-to-end delivery of the Business Transformation Platform, integration of source systems, implementation of productised solutions and setup of the Transformation Hub.

Whether it’s through training, coaching or embedded co-delivery, we work closely with your teams to ensure they are capable of sustaining and scaling transformation long after our engagement.
