Explore faster, decide with confidence

One certified source behind every answer

Certified sources, agreed-upon definitions, and governed joins are built once beneath every workbook, so commercial, marketing, and operational data answer the same question with the same number.

Explore without losing confidence in the number

Analysts follow a question through any system and at any level of detail, and the definition travels with it: the figure in the deep workbook is the same as the figure in the executive summary.

Accessible at every level

Deep workbooks for your analysts, and clear summary views for the executives and teams who need the answer, not the exploration.

Tableau Services

Strategy, usability, and solution design, applied so that your analysts explore data they can rely on.

Discovery & Assessment

Discovery & Consultation

A brief that specifies which teams need what data, at what level of detail, and which decisions each answer supports. We work with analysts and executives because Tableau serves both: analysts need line-level detail, and executives need the summary. Discovery and consultation establish the scope and requirements, with objectives and success criteria defined at this stage, so later certification follows those decisions.

DELIVERABLE

Analytical objectives & audience requirements

Platform & Deployment Review

We review your Tableau environment: Server, Cloud, or hybrid deployment; site structure; capacity; and licensing mix, and how Creator, Explorer, and Viewer seats should be allocated to the people who will actually build, explore, and read. When a Server estate is moving to the cloud, the migration is planned here, with Pulse, identity, and extract schedules in scope from the start.

DELIVERABLE

Deployment review & platform recommendations

Data Sources & Extracts Audit

We assess your published sources, extracts, and live connections, testing query performance and refresh cadence under real-world load, and recording which workbooks depend on each one. Duplicate sources with different versions of the same measure are the usual finding, and the audit names the ones that survive, so every workbook built later draws on one.

DELIVERABLE

Source & extract assessment with query findings

Strategy & Implementation

Data Strategy & Semantics

We define the data strategy and the semantic layer beneath it: which questions the platform supports and the definitions behind them. Certified sources are built first, with joins, field naming, and agreed definitions that every dashboard draws on. Row-level security is set at the source, so an analyst exploring freely still sees only the rows they are entitled to and calculates using the definitions the business agreed upon.

DELIVERABLE

Data strategy, certified sources & semantic layer

Analytical Design & Wireframes

We define the information architecture and wireframe every dashboard: the question sequence, chart selection, and filter and parameter behavior, with calculations, interactions, and views fully documented. Summary views and deep workbooks are designed as a pair, so the executive's numbers drill down to the analyst's detail without a second definition, and sign-off occurs on the wireframe before engineering starts.

DELIVERABLE

Analytical structure & dashboard wireframes

Engineering & Visual Build

Our analytics engineers build to specification: LOD expressions, table calculations, extract tuning, and the visual design that carries them, all tested at production volumes and concurrency. We complete quality assurance and validation before publication; we check every figure against its certified source and deliver a documented data glossary alongside it.

DELIVERABLE

Published dashboards, QA & data glossary

Insights & Management

Insights & Recommendations

Each cycle delivers prioritized recommendations and the commercial impact behind them. Our analysts examine commercial, marketing, and operational data together, using Tableau's depth to test what a summary view cannot reveal: the segment, the region, and the week when the trend turned. We write findings for the people who own the decision, with the supporting workbook linked so each recommendation can be checked against the data that produced it.

DELIVERABLE

Data insights, reporting & strategic advice

Pulse & Tableau Agent

We set up Tableau Pulse for certified metrics and Tableau Agent for the governed sources, so the insight that arrives in Slack or Teams reflects your definitions and traces back to the source. Subscriptions inherit existing permissions, so Pulse widens reach without widening access. Predictive and LLM work now falls under our Predictive Modeling and AI Consulting services.

DELIVERABLE

Pulse metrics & Tableau Agent

Governance & Enablement

We establish site structure, permissions, certification, extract and refresh monitoring, and a content lifecycle that retires stale dashboards, with usage reviewed each quarter to ensure the estate your team maintains is the one in use. Training is delivered so your analysts can extend and maintain the work to the same standard, and an agreed support SLA covers response times and ongoing change requests.
