Data platforms for makers, movers and digital sellers
The North West's businesses run on operational systems - ERPs with decades of history, warehouse management, e-commerce platforms trading around the clock. The data is plentiful; the platform joining it usually is not.
We build that platform: a Fabric lakehouse where ERP, trading, warehouse and finance data land governed in medallion layers, with pipelines engineered for reliability rather than heroics, and Power BI native on top.
Migration is sequenced so existing reporting keeps working until the new estate has proven itself - and capacity is sized from measured workloads with reservation savings modelled in GBP before commitment.
Retail & E-commerce
Trading, stock and channel data unified in a medallion lakehouse.
Manufacturing & Distribution
Production, quality and supply chain data from shop floor to platform.
Digital & Tech
Product event data and revenue systems on one scalable estate.
Logistics & Wholesale
Fleet, depot and margin data consolidated across sites.
