Data
Data architecture and design
Accurate, consistent data, with every field defined, labelled and owned.
Where it applies
We provide data architecture consultancy on its own or alongside the software, and every piece of work starts with a review of your data. It suits any UK organisation whose reports disagree, or that is replacing or connecting systems. Talk to us if you need to:
- Find out how accurate your data is
- Get one agreed version of your core records
- Bring together records from companies you have bought
- Clean up your data before a system change
- Know what data you hold and who owns it
- Control what AI tools can see
What it covers
Data review
- Review your data in full before any work starts
- Find where each piece of data comes from, and how accurate it is
- Find duplicates, gaps and records held differently in different systems
- Map how your data is categorised, and what needs to move to a new system
Data architecture
- Agree one structure for your core records, such as people, sites, clients and contracts
- Add checks that keep data accurate as it is entered and updated
- Plan the move off your current systems, with the data cleaned first
Metadata layer
- Record every field you hold, what it means and where it comes from
- Label each field, such as personal, sensitive or commercial
- Agree one definition for each term, so “active employee” means the same in every report
Access and audit
- Set who can see and change each field, in one place
- Apply the same rules to AI tools, so they only see what they are allowed to
- Record every change
Live reporting
- Data catalogue, data ownership and data quality
- Data accuracy tracked over time
…and more
How it connects
Data architecture draws on every system you run. It feeds your reports, KPIs, access rules and any AI tools you use.
