Data & reporting

Almost every business already has the numbers. What it does not have is them in one place, on time, without someone spending two days a month assembling them.

The tell is a monthly ritual: exports from three systems, a spreadsheet that only one person fully understands, and a figure that arrives too late to change anything. By the time the report says the thing went wrong, the month is over.

What gets built

Typical work

The hard part is agreement, not technology

Pulling data is straightforward. The work is deciding what a number means. If two systems both hold "revenue" and they disagree, no dashboard fixes that — someone has to decide which definition is correct and why.

We do that first, in writing, before building anything. It is usually the most valuable part of the engagement and it is the part most reporting projects skip, which is why so many dashboards end up quietly distrusted.

DefinitionsEach metric written down: what counts, what is excluded, which system is authoritative.
FreshnessEvery figure states how current it is. A stale number presented as live is worse than no number.
TraceabilityYou can get from a total back to the rows behind it. Otherwise nobody trusts it for long.
Failure is loudA broken feed alerts rather than silently reporting yesterday's number again.

What it costs, and what you own

Fixed price, quoted up front, scoped to ship inside four weeks. It runs on your accounts. You get the source, the metric definitions, documentation, and thirty days of fixes after launch. If the underlying data turns out to be in worse shape than expected, you will hear that before we build on top of it rather than after.
