Trusted data. Built right software.

MDA Analytics partners with complex organisations to deliver executive-ready analytics and the bespoke software that surrounds them — from data warehouses and dashboards through to APIs, internal tools, and the cloud infrastructure that keeps it all running.

Posture
Governance & quality, not shortcuts
Two practices, one team

The numbers and the systems behind them.

Most consultancies do one or the other. We do both — so the dashboards reconcile to the source systems, and the software that captures the data is built with reporting in mind from day one.

Practice 01 · Data & Analytics

Reporting that survives a board meeting.

Built on Power BI, SQL and modern warehouse patterns. Governed by default. Tuned for the questions executives actually ask.

01

Dashboards & executive reporting

Power BI dashboards covering workforce metrics, vacancies, utilisation, operational KPIs and cost. Designed for the people who read them weekly, not for screenshots.

02

Data modelling & warehouse patterns

Fact and dimension models spanning HRIS, payroll, ATS, finance and operational systems. Star schemas you can extend without rewriting.

03

Pipeline automation

Manual reconciliations and copy-paste exports replaced with scheduled, validated pipelines. Errors surface to the right person, not to the board pack.

04

Governance & access control

Role-based access with row-level security, lineage documentation, and audit trails. Trust grows when the rules are explicit.

05

Reporting operating model

Templates, naming standards and coaching that embed reporting capability inside your team — so the work continues after we leave.

06

Diagnostic reviews

Short-form audits of an existing reporting estate. We surface what works, what is duplicated, and where the next dollar should go.

Practice 02 · Software Engineering

Build the systems your reporting depends on.

Production-grade code, sensible architecture, and the operational discipline to keep it running once we hand it over.

01
Next.jsTypeScriptPostgres

Custom web apps & internal tools

Bespoke applications where a spreadsheet stops scaling and a SaaS does not fit — case management, intake portals, admin consoles, partner-facing tools.

02
RESTWebhooksQueues

APIs & system integrations

The unglamorous plumbing between HRIS, payroll, finance and operational systems. Idempotent, observable, and documented so the next change is cheap.

03
SchedulersPower AutomateScripts

Workflow & process automation

Replace the spreadsheet-and-email choreography with scheduled jobs, approval flows and notifications. Humans approve; software does the carrying.

04
CloudflareAzureCI/CD

Cloud infrastructure & DevOps

Cloudflare, Azure and AWS environments set up with infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and the boring-but-essential parts: backups, secrets, observability.

We don’t just consult. We ship.

Two SaaS products designed, engineered and operated end-to-end by MDA Analytics. Same governance and quality patterns we apply to client work — held against a paying customer base, not internal demos.

How we work

Senior delivery, kept honest.

Founder-led, with one senior owner across every engagement. That removes the hand-off tax — and keeps the standards consistent from first conversation through to hand-over.

  • Trusted numbers — every figure has a defensible lineage
  • Board-ready delivery — designed for the people who use it
  • Governed access — security, RLS and audit by default
  • Honest scope — slow is smooth, smooth is fast
  1. 01

    Listen

    A working session with the people who use the numbers and the systems daily. We map the friction, not just the brief.

  2. 02

    Shape

    A short proposal — outcomes, scope, owners, dates. No 60-page decks. Either it is clear, or it goes back for revision.

  3. 03

    Build

    Iterative delivery with a fortnightly demo. The first usable version lands early; refinement happens against something real.

  4. 04

    Hand over

    Documentation, training and a hand-over checklist. Your team owns the work — we move on, or stay for steady-state support.

Engagements

Three ways to start.

Fixed scope where it makes sense, time-and-materials where it does not. Every engagement starts with a working session and a written proposal — never a rushed quote.

2 – 3 weeks

Diagnostic

A short, sharp review of your existing reporting or data estate.

Deliverables
  • Stakeholder interviews
  • Inventory & duplication audit
  • Prioritised remediation plan
  • Executive read-out

You suspect the reporting estate is drifting and want an outside read before investing.

Most common
6 – 10 weeks

Executive build

A fully-modelled Power BI dashboard or web app shipped to production.

Deliverables
  • Source-system integration
  • Star schema & semantic model
  • Designed dashboard or app
  • RLS, documentation & training

You have a clear reporting or tooling need and want it built once, properly.

3 – 6 months

Platform uplift

A foundation engagement — warehouse, pipelines, and the software around them.

Deliverables
  • Warehouse & ingestion design
  • Automation & APIs
  • Cloud infrastructure
  • Operating model & hand-over

You are setting up a reporting capability from scratch, or replacing one that has run its course.
