Programme, engineering and commercial data in one governed estate
Long engineering programmes accumulate systems the way they accumulate revisions. By year three the programme data lives in a project tool, a finance system, a PLM platform and a set of spreadsheets nobody wants to own.
We build a Fabric lakehouse that consolidates them: raw programme and engineering data landing automatically, conformed into business-ready layers, with access control that respects the boundaries defence and commercial work require.
Existing reporting keeps running through migration, and capacity is sized from measured workloads with reservation savings modelled in GBP before you commit.
Aerospace & Defence
Programme, cost-to-complete and supply chain reporting.
Technology & Software
Product, usage and commercial analytics for scaling businesses.
Professional Services
Utilisation, pipeline and profitability in one governed view.
Energy & Environment
Asset, generation and sustainability reporting across sites.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about Microsoft data consulting in Bristol.
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 South West. Bristol is straightforward for on-site workshops across the South West and South Wales, though most delivery runs remote-first for pace, with sessions in the city where the engagement benefits from it.
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.
