Burnley's economy is built on advanced manufacturing, engineering, aerospace supply and a solid base of logistics and retail businesses across east Lancashire. Manufacturers here often hold detailed production and quality data that never makes it further than the shop floor, leaving directors making decisions from gut feel rather than actual figures.
We work with organisations across every sector in Burnley, including manufacturing, retail, professional services, healthcare, logistics, charities and the public sector. We are not tied to one industry; we focus on turning scattered data into reporting that people actually use.
Data consultancy services for Burnley businesses
Data engineering and warehousing
We connect production systems, finance software and spreadsheets into a single warehouse, removing the manual exports that Burnley businesses often rely on to pull together month end figures.
Data modelling
Our data modelling services give production, sales and finance data a shared structure, making it possible to link output figures directly to cost and revenue.
Power BI reporting and dashboard design
Through Power BI consultancy and dashboard design we build dashboards covering production efficiency, quality metrics and order status, designed for use on the shop floor as well as in the office.
Data visualisation
Our data visualisation work presents production and quality data in a way that highlights exceptions quickly, rather than burying them in tables.
Analytics and forecasting
Our data analytics services help Burnley businesses forecast demand and capacity, using machine learning selectively where a business has enough historical data for it to add real value.
Microsoft Fabric
Our Microsoft Fabric consultancy suits Burnley manufacturers wanting to bring shop floor data and business systems together under one platform without a heavy IT project.
Data governance and data quality
Through data governance consulting and data quality management we help set clear rules for how data is recorded on the production line and in back office systems, reducing mismatches between the two.
Data migration
Our data migration services support moves to new ERP or MES systems, keeping historical production and financial data intact through the transition.
Master data management
Our master data management work keeps part numbers, supplier records and customer details consistent across production and finance systems, cutting down on reconciliation work.
Training and support
We provide Power BI training for teams who want to build their own reports, along with ongoing bi reporting services for businesses that prefer we continue to develop reporting for them.
How we work with Burnley businesses
We start with a discovery session to understand your systems and priorities, then agree a fixed price for the first phase of work. As part of our UK data consultancy offering, delivery combines remote work with onsite visits to Burnley for workshops and handover, and ongoing support is available once reporting is live.
We deliver this work remotely across the UK, with onsite visits to Burnley where they add value. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
