Optimisation, Migration & Quality
Data quality management
Bad data is cheapest to fix before it reaches a report. We put rules, checks and reconciliation in the pipeline itself, and make data-quality results visible to the people who own the data.

FAQ
Data Quality — common questions
- Where should data-quality checks run?
- As close to the load as possible — in staging and before data is published to reporting — so problems are caught before anyone relies on them.
- Do you need a separate data-quality tool?
- Not necessarily. Many checks can be implemented in SQL Server alongside your pipelines, with results reported in Power BI.
- Who decides what 'good' data looks like?
- The business owners of the data. We help define measurable rules with them and implement those rules technically.
