Foundations
Making sure your data is clearly defined, consistent and trusted
As organisations grow, data usually grows in complexity. Systems evolve, spreadsheets multiply, definitions drift and confidence in reporting slowly erodes.
We help you create clarity around your data before change happens. This ensures everyone is working from the same understanding and that reporting is built on a solid, agreed foundation.
Our approach focuses on understanding what exists today, what matters most and where risk sits. This reduces disruption and avoids costly mistakes later on.

What this involves
We work with you to:
- Understand how data is currently used and reported
- Identify inconsistencies, duplication and gaps
- Agree clear definitions for key metrics
- Validate data before it is used, changed or moved
- Reduce reliance on undocumented spreadsheets and manual fixes
This work often takes place before platform changes or reporting improvements are made.
Technology
Technology choices come later. Our priority at this stage is understanding the data and agreeing what it represents, not rushing into tools or platforms.
What this solves
- Conflicting figures across reports and teams
- Unclear or undocumented definitions
- Fragile reporting that breaks when questioned
- Heavy reliance on spreadsheets and workarounds
- Loss of confidence in the numbers
