One platform for shop floor, supply chain and back office
West Midlands manufacturers carry decades of operational history in ERP and MES systems that were never designed to be reported on together. Add a finance system, a warehouse platform and a CRM, and answering a cost-to-serve question becomes a fortnight of spreadsheet work.
We build the platform that ends that: a Fabric lakehouse where production, supply chain, finance and customer data land in governed medallion layers, with metadata-driven pipelines that absorb new systems rather than breaking on them.
Migration is sequenced so existing reporting keeps running until the new estate has proven itself, and capacity is sized from measured workloads with reservation savings modelled in GBP before you commit.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about Microsoft data consulting in Birmingham.
Yes. We design and build full Fabric platforms - OneLake, medallion lakehouse architecture, pipelines, warehousing and the Power BI layer on top - for clients across the West Midlands. Birmingham sits under two hours from most of the UK by rail, so on-site workshops in the city or at a Midlands plant are straightforward where the engagement benefits from being in the room.
It depends on scope, from a focused proof of value over a few weeks to a phased platform programme. Our UK Fabric implementation cost guide on this site sets out realistic budgets, and capacity itself is sized from measured workloads rather than guesswork.
Yes, and we sequence it so existing reporting keeps running until the new platform has proven itself. Migration is phased by workload rather than attempted as a single cutover.
Capacity follows refresh frequency, query concurrency and workload efficiency rather than raw data volume. We typically start a tier lower than instinct on pay-as-you-go, measure real usage, then reserve the SKU the data supports.
Security is designed at the data layer rather than per report - row-level security, role-based access through Microsoft Entra, and Purview sensitivity labelling and lineage across the estate.
