← Services06 / Data analytics & automation

Smarter business operations.

One trusted data model, three dashboards, decisions made faster.

Why this matters

Most businesses are drowning in data and starving for decisions.

Every business we work with has more data than they realise, in their POS, their CRM, their accounting package, their delivery app, their WhatsApp inbox. The problem is rarely a shortage of numbers. It is that the numbers live in seven systems that disagree with each other, and nobody trusts the report enough to act on it.

Our analytics work starts with picking three decisions your leadership needs to make better, and tracing back to the data those decisions need. We then build one model, usually in dbt or Python, that everyone in the business can agree is the source of truth. Dashboards come last, not first. Three of them, each for a role and a decision.

Once the foundation is in place, automation gets cheap. Stock reordering, invoice chasing, KYC checks, daily ops reports, the obvious wins start paying back within weeks.

What's included

Everything you get in scope.

Fixed scope, fixed budget. If something new comes up mid-engagement, we re-scope in writing before it lands on an invoice. No surprises, no hidden line items.

  • Business dashboards

    Sales, operations, finance and customer-success views, each one built for a specific role and a real decision.

  • Data visualisation

    Charts that tell a story in five seconds, not interactive toys that take an hour to explore.

  • Reporting systems

    Automated daily, weekly and monthly reports straight to email, Slack or WhatsApp.

  • Workflow automation

    Quiet automations between your existing tools, Sheets, Sage, M-PESA, CRM, accounting, that remove human copy-paste work.

  • AI-assisted processes

    LLM-powered triage, summarisation and document extraction wired into your real workflows.

  • Operational analytics

    Lead-time, fulfilment, churn, NPS and SLA tracking with proactive alerts when something drifts.

Common questions

Things buyers usually ask before signing.

Do we need to move all our data to a warehouse?

Usually not. We pick the smallest infrastructure that works, sometimes a single Postgres database with views is plenty. Warehouses earn their keep above a certain volume; below that they are overkill.

Can you automate without replacing our existing software?

Yes. Most of our automation work sits between the tools you already use, Sheets, Sage, your CRM, M-PESA, WhatsApp. We rarely need to replace the underlying systems.

What about data security?

We sign NDAs, we work in your environment when you prefer, and we follow the Data Protection Act 2019 for any personal data. We can also align to your ISO or SOC posture if you have one.
