Modern data platforms
We assess where your data lives, what it can support today and what has to change, then design the platform and the order to build it in. For most companies on Microsoft, that means an affordable, complete platform on Fabric first, with governance and security from the start.
Our data services
These are the five areas our data readiness assessment scores. Each has a focused first project.
Data integration and accessibility
Data spread across an ERP, a CRM and a dozen spreadsheets can’t be trusted or reused. We get the sources into one governed platform, automated and monitored for freshness. A first project: a focused data integration pilot on one priority data flow.
Data quality and traceability
When a pipeline fails quietly, the dashboards keep showing numbers and the numbers are wrong. We agree the critical measures, put validation into the pipelines and keep the source history, so every number can be traced. A first project: data quality and modeling discovery.
Governance and security
Governance is an operating model, with owners, rules and monitoring that keep running after go-live. We name data owners, set access by how sensitive the data is and build the lineage that shows where every number came from. A first project: a governance and security foundation.
Business intelligence and adoption
The hard part of BI is the data layer under the dashboards, the one that lets finance and operations see the same number for the same question. Then people have to use it. We start from one business decision, build reusable measures and train the people who read the reports. A first project: a BI and adoption pilot.
Platform operations and scalability
A platform in production needs controlled releases, monitoring and someone watching capacity and cost as usage grows. We set that up, or run it for you through managed services with P1 to P4 support. A first project: a production readiness assessment.

Three decisions, one architecture
The architecture stays the same whichever platform you choose, and we build on all three, so the recommendation follows your estate.
Your data, identity and licensing already live with Microsoft, and Power BI reads straight from Fabric. Start there. If the data science grows, Databricks works alongside it, so what you’ve built carries over.
How this connects to AI
Data strategy work often begins with an AI readiness question. Our AI Enablement Guide covers how to evaluate your data before investing in AI.
Our process
Every engagement starts with understanding what you have, what you need and where the gaps are. Then we build it once and serve every consumer.
We map your current data sources, pipelines, platform architecture and quality baselines. The first phase stands on its own: you keep the roadmap whether or not you go further.
Deliverable
A prioritized roadmap that identifies the highest-impact improvements and the dependencies between them.
We design the target architecture from what the assessment found: the platform, the pipeline design, the data model and the governance rules, each tied to a business requirement you can measure.
Pipelines deployed, data migrated, transformations tested, dashboards connected and governance controls configured. Old and new run in parallel, so production reporting keeps running through the cutover.
Ongoing
We transfer ownership to your internal teams with documented procedures, monitoring dashboards and runbooks in place. If you’d rather we kept running it, managed services covers that.
Industries
Patient, pharmacy and clinical data systems held to HIPAA, including where AI is allowed to touch them.
Clients include
ERP, shop-floor and supplier data on one platform, so plant reporting and finance reporting reconcile.
Clients include
Order, inventory, credit and customer data connected across portals, branches and the platforms behind them.
Clients include
Bank data platforms, reporting that holds up to an audit and managed support for the financial systems the business runs on.
Clients include
Claims, member and policy systems for health plans and insurers.

Case studies
Manufacturing
Six operating entities on one SAP ECC 6.0 system, brought into Fabric with no RFC bulk extraction and entity-level security. The client's Basis and SAP teams found the process much easier than they expected.
Healthcare
$16M+
Hired to add a state-mandated code to a health plan’s nursing facility file, our team noticed the process was mishandling records. The plan confirmed it, filed corrections and recovered $16M+.
Healthcare
Turnover had taken the onboarding knowledge with it. Recurring data quality issues across SSIS and MuleSoft feeds were fixed, onboarding was documented and four programs were migrated.

A few practical questions
Questions we hear on first calls.
Ask us about your situationData advisory work covers how your data is stored, moved, governed and used: modernizing legacy platforms, engineering pipelines, analytics architecture, AI readiness and governance, plus ongoing support. We also build and run what we recommend, so the roadmap is one we know how to deliver.
Cost follows scope. A focused data assessment comes first, and it sizes the migration or modernization by the number of source systems and what depends on them. Managed services are a monthly contract set by the systems covered and the response times. You get a written scope with the timeline and cost model before work begins.
Usually, yes. For most companies already on Microsoft, Fabric is the affordable way to get a complete platform, with governance and security included, starting with the sources that matter most. When the data work grows, Databricks can be added alongside it.
The features rarely decide it. Ask what it costs to leave in three years, who owns the data model once the vendor’s tooling owns the pipeline, which parts of the stack you are renting and which you are building, and what breaks first when the data volume doubles. We keep the architecture the same on Fabric, Databricks and Snowflake, so those answers stay in your favor.
Usually when a platform migration needs experience the team doesn’t have yet, when the team is at capacity with day-to-day work, when the timeline is shorter than hiring allows, or when leadership wants an outside read on the current architecture. Many clients split the work: we build the foundation and their team maintains and extends it.
Healthcare, manufacturing, distribution and retail, financial services and insurance. Healthcare runs deepest: more than ten years of HIPAA-governed software and data work for one Medicaid health plan, plus pharmacy services and clinical software organizations.
Microsoft Fabric, Databricks and Snowflake for the platform; Azure Data Factory, Fabric Data Factory and Airflow for orchestration; dbt for transformation and modeling; Power BI, Tableau and Looker for reporting; and hosted, private and local language models for AI, routed by task. The choice follows the environment you already run.
We have been putting systems into production since 2006, and we build on Fabric, Databricks and Snowflake, so the recommendation follows your estate rather than a partnership. We aim for one Gold use case in 90 days, not a full warehouse rebuild, and we’ll tell you when a simpler setup will do. With 230+ people we can staff a platform migration.
